Golden Pan-Seared Tuna with Zesty Pomegranate Rice
Pan-seared tuna steaks dusted with golden turmeric served over a vibrant pomegranate-studded rice pilaf for a refreshing and zesty crunch.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz tuna steak
0.5 cup cooked jasmine rice
0.25 cup pomegranate arils
1 tsp extra virgin olive oil
1 cup baby bok choy
1 tsp toasted sesame seeds
1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
0.25 tsp ground turmeric
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
PREPARATION
Pat the tuna steak dry with a paper towel and season both sides evenly with ground turmeric, sea salt, and black pepper.
In a medium bowl, fluff the warm cooked jasmine rice and fold in the pomegranate arils and fresh lemon juice until well combined.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat with half of the olive oil and lightly sauté the baby bok choy for 2-3 minutes until tender-crisp, then set aside.
Wipe the skillet, add the remaining olive oil, and sear the tuna steak for 1-2 minutes per side for a perfect medium-rare finish.
Slice the tuna against the grain and serve atop the zesty pomegranate rice with the sautéed bok choy on the side.
Garnish the entire dish with toasted sesame seeds for a final touch of texture.
