SEARED AHI TUNA STEAK RECIPE

Steps:

• In a small bowl - combine all the tuna steak marinade ingredients - soy sauce, rice vinegar, mirin, sesame oil, sliced ginger & garlic, scallions, and chilly flakes.Pro tip - Use glass or plastic, never metal when marinating. Otherwise, the acid ingredients in the marinade can react with the metal.
• Place the tuna steaks in the marinade and turn them over a few times to coat well. Leave to marinate for 15 minutes up to an hour. Pro tip - You can marinate the tuna for up to 3 hours in the fridge.
• Sear tuna steaks - Heat a cast-iron skillet on medium-high heat. Add the olive oil and let the pan become very hot. Place the two tuna steaks in the skillet. Season with kosher salt and black pepper. Pro tip - The pan must be smoking hot this will give a nice sear and color on the tuna.
• Cook the steak for 1 to 1 1/2 minutes on each side. (medium-rare) Pro tip - You can do up to 2 minutes on each side if you like it less rare. I would not recommend more than 2 minutes.
• Remove from the pan and let rest for 5 to 7 minutes. Then, slice and garnish with chopped scallions.
• Serve with plain jasmine rice, a side salad, and a vegetable side dish for a complete meal.

Steps:

• Start a pot of salted water to a boil. Boil the pasta until it is just al dente. Start tasting a few minutes before the package recommends: you want it to be tender but still a little firm on the inside; usually around 7 to 8 minutes. In the last 1 minute, add the peas. Drain the pasta and peas, then rinse with cold water.
• Meanwhile, thinly slice the green onions. Mince the red onion. Drain the tuna and flake it with a fork. Place them in a large bowl with the mayonnaise, white vinegar, dill, and kosher salt.
• Once the pasta and peas are cooked, add them to the bowl and mix. Taste and adjust flavors if desired, adding black pepper as necessary. Serve immediately. Store leftovers refrigerated for up to 3 days: before eating, allow to come to room temperature. You may want to add a swirl of mayo or sour cream and a pinch of salt to refresh the texture and flavor.
