Pan-Seared Ahi Tuna with Zesty Wasabi Mayo
Fresh ahi tuna crusted in sesame seeds and pan-seared to perfection, served with a zesty wasabi-lime mayo and crisp cucumber salad.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz ahi tuna steak
1 tbsp black sesame seeds
1 tbsp white sesame seeds
0.5 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
1 tsp avocado oil
1.5 tbsp avocado oil mayonnaise
1 tsp wasabi paste
1 tsp lime juice
1 cup sliced cucumber
1 tbsp rice vinegar
1 tsp tamari
PREPARATION
In a small bowl, whisk together the avocado oil mayonnaise, wasabi paste, and lime juice until smooth.
In a shallow dish, combine the black and white sesame seeds with the sea salt and black pepper.
Pat the ahi tuna steak dry with paper towels and press all sides firmly into the sesame seed mixture to coat thoroughly.
Heat the avocado oil in a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat until the oil is shimmering and hot.
Sear the tuna for 45 to 60 seconds per side for a rare center, then remove from the pan and let rest for 2 minutes.
In a separate bowl, toss the sliced cucumber with the rice vinegar and tamari.
Slice the rested tuna into thin strips and serve immediately with the wasabi mayo and the cucumber salad on the side.
