Lay the tuna in the hot oil and sear for 1 minute on each side to form a slight crust. Pour 1/2 of the cilantro mixture into the pan to coat the fish. Serve the seared tuna with the sliced avocado and the remaining cilantro sauce drizzled over the whole plate.

• Pour 1/2 cup marinade into a large ziplock baggie and add tuna.

SEARED AHI MARINADE

Steps:

• Mix the sesame oil, soy sauce, ginger, garlic, green onion and lime juice in a non metal bowl. Add ahi and coat , cover tightly, and refrigerate for about an hour.
• Toast the sesame seeds in a pan until light brown (I prefer a blend of white and black sesame seeds- the black ones are hard to find, try an asian market). Remove seeds and allow to cool on a flat plate (you will use this plate to dredge the tuna in)- add cracked pepper.
• Add olive oil to a skillet and allow it to get HOT.
• Dredge the ahi in the sesame seeds and pepper to coat and add to the hot pan.
• Cook only two or three minutes on each side so that the ahi is seared on the outside and rare on the inside.
• Serve with white rice and green beans that have been either roasted or cooked and drizzled with sesame oil. Sprinkle any extra sesame seeds over the top.
• garnish with remaining green onion and ENJOY!
