Ingredients:
1 ahi tuna steak
1 1/2 tablespoons sesame seeds
1 tablespoon wasabi powder
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 tablespoon honey
1/4 tablespoon sesame oil
1/4 tablespoon peanut oil
sliced green onion
1 lime wedge
Directions:
1. Rinse tuna steak and pat dry.
2. Combine sesame seeds, wasabi powder, soy sauce, honey and sesame oil in a shallow pan. Add steak, turning to coat both sides. Let marinate for 10 minutes, then turn and marinate for 10 minutes more.
3. Heat peanut oil in a heavy nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Cook steak to desired doneness, about 2 minutes per side for a nice sear on the outside and a rare middle or 3 minutes for medium-rare.
4. Top with a sprinkle of green onions, if desired, and a squeeze of lime.
