Pan-Seared Zesty Ahi Tuna with Wasabi
Ahi tuna steaks pan-seared to a perfect rare, served with crisp snap peas over fluffy brown rice and finished with a zesty wasabi-ginger drizzle.
INGREDIENTS
7 oz Ahi tuna steak
1 tbsp toasted sesame oil
0.5 cup cooked brown rice
1 cup snap peas
1 tbsp tamari
1 tsp wasabi paste
1 tsp fresh ginger
0.5 tsp black sesame seeds
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
PREPARATION
Pat the Ahi tuna steak completely dry with paper towels and season both sides evenly with sea salt and black pepper.
In a small bowl, whisk together the tamari, wasabi paste, and freshly grated ginger until smooth to create the zesty drizzle.
Heat the toasted sesame oil in a heavy-bottomed or cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat until the oil is shimmering and just starting to smoke.
Carefully place the tuna steak in the hot skillet and sear for exactly 1 to 2 minutes per side for a perfect rare center with a golden-brown crust.
While the tuna rests for 2 minutes, steam the snap peas in a small amount of water for 3 minutes until they are bright green and tender-crisp.
Slice the tuna against the grain into half-inch thick strips.
Plate the tuna alongside the fluffy brown rice and steamed snap peas, drizzling the wasabi-ginger sauce over the fish and finishing with a sprinkle of black sesame seeds.
