The sesame seeds tend to pop out of the skillet as the tuna cooks, so use caution and wear an oven mitt when you turn over the fish. Ingredients:
1 garlic clove, minced |
3 tablespoons orange-ginger sauce and glaze (such as iron chef) |
1 tablespoon seasoned rice vinegar |
1 teaspoon low-sodium soy sauce |
1/2 teaspoon dark sesame oil |
2 teaspoons canola oil |
4 (6-ounce) tuna steaks (about 1 inch thick) |
1/8 teaspoon salt |
3 tablespoons sesame seeds |
3 tablespoons black sesame seeds |
cooking spray |
1/4 cup sliced green onions |
Directions:
1. Combine first 5 ingredients, stirring well with a whisk; set aside. 2. Heat canola oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Sprinkle steaks evenly with salt. Combine sesame seeds and black sesame seeds in a shallow dish. Dredge steaks in sesame seeds. Lightly coat both sides of fish with cooking spray. Add fish to pan; cook 3 minutes on each side or until desired degree of doneness. Sprinkle evenly with onions; serve with orange-ginger sauce. |
