pan seared tuna

Melt-in-your-mouth Wasabi Seared Tuna with a spicy dipping sauce is the perfect appetizer for entertaining!

Wasabi Seared Tuna

sized, thick sushi-grade ahi tuna tuna

canola oil (divided)

Salt & pepper

wasabi peas

black sesame seeds

Wasabi paste

soy sauce

rice vinegar

ginger

red pepper flakes

green onion

Pat the tuna steaks with a paper towel to remove any moisture. Brush the tuna with canola oil all over and salt and pepper each side.

Pulse the wasabi peas in a small food processor until it forms a course powder. Place the peas in a shallow dish for dredging such as a pie pan and mix in some black sesame seeds.  Dredge the tuna steaks on all sides in the wasabi peas powder to coat.

Heat a medium cast iron skillet on high heat. Add about 1 tablespoon of canola oil. Sear the tuna for 3 minutes on first side and 2 minutes on second side until nicely seared on the outside and rare on the inside. Make sure to sear the sides as well. Take out of the skillet and let rest on a cutting board for 5 minutes. Slice thinly against the grain and serve with the dipping sauce and a dollop of wasabi paste.

This was beyond amazing and so easy to make. A total hit at a party!!!!

This looks amazing! I’m definitely trying this one next time I entertain!

Where can i find Wasabi peas in the produce or grocery  spot?

This starter dish is made to impress! The wasabi peas are not at all spicy, but give the tuna a pretty outside color and nice texture. It’s always a big hit with my dinner guests!

Pan-Seared Sesame-Crusted Tuna Rice Bowls

sushi rice

Tbsp rice vinegar

sugar

½ tsp kosher salt

(4-5 oz) ahi tuna fillets, (look for tuna with a deep red color)

Tbsp sesame oil

tsp kosher salt, (divided)

white sesame seeds

Make the sushi rice. Place rice in a fine mesh strainer, then run under cool water to thoroughly rinse. At first, the water will look cloudy or murky, but after 1 minute, the water should run clear. Cook the rice according to package or rice cooker instructions.

Make the sushi vinegar. In a small saucepan, combine 2 Tbsp rice vinegar, 1½ tsp sugar, and ½ tsp Kosher salt. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat, then whisk until dissolved. Set aside until the rice is cooked.

Season the rice. Pour sushi vinegar on top of rice, directly in the pot it was cooked in. Use a rice spoon or spatula to gently toss the rice with the vinegar, being careful not to squish the rice.

Prepare the tuna. Pat the tuna dry on both sides with paper towels, then brush each filet lightly with sesame oil. Season each tuna steak with ½ tsp Kosher salt. Mix ¼ cup black sesame seeds and ¼ cup white white sesame seeds together on a plate or sheet tray. Firmly press the tuna filets into the sesame seeds to coat on all sides.

Sear the tuna. Bring a pan to medium-high heat, then add remaining 2 Tbsp neutral oil. When just barely smoking, carefully add the tuna fillets, cooking for 30-60 seconds per side for rare, or 1-2 minutes per side for medium. Transfer the seared tuna to a plate. Allow to cool slightly.

Assemble, then serve. Thinly cut tuna across the grain into slices about ¼ -inch thick, then divide between bowls. Drizzle with spicy mayo, then garnish with your favorite toppings. I like to add watercress, scallions, thinly sliced Thai red chiles, cilantro, sesame seeds, and lime wedges. Pickled ginger can be added to the bowls or served on the side. Enjoy hot, room temperature, or cold.
