Pan-Seared Ahi Tuna with Zesty Wasabi Mayo
Fresh ahi tuna steaks crusted in toasted sesame seeds and seared until rare, served with a creamy and pungent wasabi mayo drizzle.
INGREDIENTS
8 oz Ahi tuna steak
1 tbsp Sesame seeds
1 tsp Avocado oil
1 tbsp Avocado oil mayonnaise
1 tsp Wasabi paste
1 tsp Lime juice
1 cup Cucumber
1 tbsp Rice vinegar
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
PREPARATION
Pat the ahi tuna steak dry with a paper towel and season all sides with the sea salt and black pepper.
Spread the sesame seeds on a flat plate and press the tuna steak firmly into the seeds until the top and bottom are evenly coated.
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 skillet over medium-high heat until it is shimmering and very hot.
Place the tuna in the skillet and sear for 45 to 60 seconds per side, just until the sesame seeds are golden and the tuna is cooked 1/4-inch deep.
Remove the tuna from the pan and let it rest for 2 minutes before slicing into 1/2-inch thick strips.
Toss the sliced cucumber with the rice vinegar in a bowl to create a quick pickled base.
Arrange the sliced tuna over the cucumbers and finish by drizzling the wasabi mayo over the top.
