Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 1/2 pounds fresh tuna steaks, 1 inch thick
1/3 cup ponzu sauce
3/4 tsp prepared wasabi
1/4 cup sesame seeds
2 tbsp canola oil

Steps:

  • Rinse tuna with cold water; pat dry with paper towels. Set aside. In a small bowl, mix together ponzu sauce and wasabi until wasabi is incorporated and there are no lumps; set aside. Spread sesame seeds on a plate or pie pan. Press both sides of the tuna steaks into sesame seeds to coat. In a large skillet, heat canola oil over medium-high heat. Add the tuna to hot oil; cook for 3 to 5 minutes per side, depending on desired doneness of tuna. (Be careful not to overcook the tuna as it will dry out quickly). Serve wasabi mixture with fish.
