Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. Add olive oil to a skillet and allow it to get HOT.
  4. Dredge the ahi in the sesame seeds and pepper to coat and add to the hot pan.
  5. Cook only two or three minutes on each side so that the ahi is seared on the outside and rare on the inside.
  6. 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.
  7. Garnish with remaining green onion and ENJOY!
