Pan-Seared Ahi Tuna with Zesty Wasabi Mayo
Fresh ahi tuna steaks are crusted in toasted sesame seeds and pan-seared to create a buttery texture, served with a creamy and pungent wasabi dipping sauce.
INGREDIENTS
5.5 oz ahi tuna steak
1 tbsp black sesame seeds
1 tbsp white sesame seeds
1 tbsp avocado oil
1 tbsp avocado oil mayonnaise
1 tsp wasabi paste
1 tsp coconut aminos
1 tsp lime juice
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
1 cup cucumber
PREPARATION
Pat the ahi tuna steak completely dry with paper towels and season all sides with sea salt and black pepper.
Mix the black and white sesame seeds on a flat plate, then press the tuna firmly into the seeds until all sides are evenly crusted.
In a small bowl, whisk together the avocado oil mayonnaise, wasabi paste, coconut aminos, and lime juice until smooth.
Heat the avocado oil in a cast-iron or heavy-bottomed skillet over high heat until it begins to shimmer and just starts to smoke.
Carefully place the tuna in the hot skillet and sear for 45 to 60 seconds per side for a perfect rare center.
Remove the tuna from the pan and let it rest for 2 minutes before slicing into thin strips against the grain.
Serve the sliced tuna immediately with the wasabi mayo for dipping and the fresh sliced cucumber on the side.
