Method

Preparation Steps

1

Prepare the Vinaigrette

In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, soy sauce, balsamic vinegar, honey, salt, and black pepper. Set aside.

2

Prepare the Salad Base

In a large bowl, combine mixed greens and sliced cucumber. Toss gently to combine.

3

Sear the Ahi Tuna

Preheat a skillet over medium-high heat. Season the ahi tuna steaks with salt and black pepper. Add a little olive oil to the skillet and sear the tuna for about 1-2 minutes on each side for rare, or longer to your desired doneness.

4

Slice the Tuna

Once seared, remove the tuna from the skillet and let it rest for a minute. Then slice the tuna into thin strips.

5

Assemble the Salad

Top the mixed greens and cucumber with sliced seared ahi tuna. Drizzle the soy-balsamic vinaigrette over the salad before serving.
