1
Seared Tuna Preparation
Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Season the fresh tuna steak with salt and pepper. Sear the tuna for about 1-2 minutes on each side until the outside is browned, but the inside remains rare. Remove from heat and let it rest for a few minutes.
2
Slice the Tuna
Once the tuna has rested, slice it thinly against the grain.
3
Prepare the Garnish
In a small bowl, mix the sliced fresh chili, chopped cilantro, basil, and lime juice.
4
Serve
Arrange the sliced tuna on a plate, drizzle with soy sauce, and top with the fresh herb and chili mixture. Sprinkle sesame seeds on top and serve immediately.
