Pan-Seared Ahi Tuna with Zesty Wasabi Mayo
Pan-seared ahi tuna crusted in sesame seeds and served with a zesty wasabi-lime mayo over crisp steamed bok choy.
INGREDIENTS
8 oz Ahi tuna steak
1 tsp Toasted sesame oil
1 tbsp Black and white sesame seeds
1 tbsp Avocado oil mayonnaise
1 tsp Wasabi paste
1 tsp Fresh lime juice
1 cup Baby bok choy
0.5 cup Sliced cucumber
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 with sea salt and black pepper.
Spread the sesame seeds on a flat plate and press the tuna steak firmly into the seeds to create an even crust on the top and bottom.
In a small bowl, whisk together the avocado oil mayonnaise, wasabi paste, and lime juice until smooth and creamy.
Heat the toasted sesame oil in a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering but not smoking.
Place the tuna in the hot skillet and sear for 1 to 2 minutes per side for a perfect rare to medium-rare center.
While the tuna sears, steam the baby bok choy for 3 minutes until the leaves are wilted and the stalks are tender-crisp.
Remove the tuna from the pan, let it rest for 2 minutes, then slice into half-inch thick pieces against the grain.
Arrange the sliced tuna over the steamed bok choy and cucumber, then drizzle with the prepared wasabi mayo.
