Ingredients

  • 12 oz ahi tuna
  • 1/4 cup sesame seeds
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tbsp wasabi paste
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce

Directions

  • In shallow dish, combine soy sauce, wasabi paste and pepper. Mix well.
  • Add the tuna and turn thoroughly coating both sides.
  • Let sit for 10 minutes or plan ahead and let marinate overnight in a zipper bag or food saver bag.
  • Coat a pan with non-stick cooking spray or one turn of the pan with olive oil. Heat pan on medium to high heat.
  • Place the sesame seeds in another shallow dish, add the tuna and turn to coat completely.
  • Sear the tuna for 1 to 2 minutes per side, or until browned or cooked to desired doneness. Slice thinly and serve with brown rice or vegetables.
  • Note: fish cooks fast! It will be dry and chewy if overcooked. These do not come out of a pan fiery hot, but with wasabi flavor. You can always add more heat if you wish.
