Pan-Seared Ahi Tuna with Zesty Wasabi Mayo
Pan-seared ahi tuna steaks crusted in sesame seeds, served with a zesty wasabi-lime mayo and crisp steamed baby bok choy over fluffy jasmine rice.
INGREDIENTS
7 oz ahi tuna steak
1 tbsp sesame seeds
1 tsp avocado oil
1 tbsp avocado oil mayonnaise
0.5 tsp wasabi paste
0.5 tsp lime juice
0.5 cup cooked jasmine rice
1 cup baby bok choy
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
PREPARATION
Pat the ahi tuna steak completely dry with a paper towel and season both sides with sea salt and black pepper.
Spread the sesame seeds on a small plate and press the tuna steak into the seeds until the surface is evenly crusted.
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the avocado oil mayonnaise, wasabi paste, and lime juice until the sauce is smooth and combined.
Heat the avocado oil in a cast-iron or heavy-bottomed skillet over medium-high heat until it begins to shimmer.
Carefully place the tuna in the hot skillet and sear for 60 to 90 seconds per side for a perfect rare center, or longer if you prefer it more well-done.
While the tuna rests, steam the baby bok choy for 3 to 4 minutes until the leaves are wilted and the stalks are tender-crisp.
Slice the tuna against the grain into half-inch strips and serve over the warm jasmine rice with the bok choy and a drizzle of the wasabi mayo.
