This is half a simple recipe, but I was hoping for help with the other half!
Basically, I want a sesame encrusted ahi tuna filet seared and sliced, served with butter lettuce, julienned carrots, and roasted red peppers. Here's how I think it should be done - what do you think?
Brush the fish with olive oil and press in/dredge in sesame seeds. In a fry pan on med-high, take one tblspns of olive oil and sear tuna. Let rest for 5 min, slice, and serve.
Here's what I think it's missing:
Is my pan too hot/ am I using a good type of fat to cook with?
Is this a good method of adhering the sesame seeds to the tuna?
What sort of sauce would go well? I was thinking something like a soy ginger sauce?
Thanks for all your help!!!!
