Fish
Asian Slaw
Sweet Ponzu Sauce
Prepare the Fish
1. Blackening the Ahi Tuna
Coat the Ahi tuna fillet with blackening seasoning evenly on all sides. Heat a skillet over high heat and add a little oil. Once hot, sear the tuna for about 1-2 minutes per side until a crust forms but the inside remains rare. Remove from heat and let it rest for a minute before slicing thinly.
Make the Asian Slaw
1. Combine the Slaw Ingredients
In a large bowl, combine shredded cabbage, julienned carrot, red bell pepper, green onions, and cilantro. In a small bowl, whisk together rice vinegar, sesame oil, soy sauce, honey, salt, and pepper. Pour the dressing over the slaw and toss to coat evenly.
Prepare the Sweet Ponzu Sauce
1. Mix the Ponzu Ingredients
In a small bowl, combine soy sauce, yuzu juice (or lemon juice), mirin, sugar, and water. Stir until the sugar dissolves.
Serve
1. Plate the Dish
On a plate, arrange the sliced Ahi sashimi artfully with the Asian slaw on the side. Drizzle sweet ponzu sauce over the sashimi and serve immediately.
