INGREDIENTS
5 oz Ahi Tuna Steak
1 tbsp Toasted Sesame Seeds
1 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 tsp Fresh Ginger (grated)
2 tbsp Fresh Lemon Juice
1 clove Garlic (minced)
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Pat the tuna steak dry and season lightly with salt and pepper.
Spread the toasted sesame seeds evenly on a plate. Press both sides of the tuna steak into the sesame seeds to create a crust.
Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the tuna steak.
Sear the tuna for about 1.5-2 minutes on each side for a rare center (adjust timing if you prefer more doneness). Remove from heat.
In a small bowl, combine the grated ginger, lemon juice, minced garlic, and a pinch of salt and pepper to create the ginger-citrus sauce.
Drizzle the sauce over the seared tuna and serve immediately.
