Method

Preparation of Ingredients

  1. 1

    Prepare the Spicy Tuna Mix

    In a bowl, combine the spicy tuna mix with a tablespoon of lime juice. Stir well to combine and set aside.

  2. 2

    Slice the Jalapeño

    Remove the seeds from the jalapeño and thinly slice it. Set aside for garnish.

  3. 3

    Season the Tuna

    Rub the ahi tuna steaks with sesame oil, sea salt, and black pepper on both sides.

Cooking the Tuna

  1. 4

    Sear the Tuna

    Heat a skillet over high heat. Add a splash of sesame oil to the skillet. When hot, place the tuna steaks in the skillet and sear for 1-2 minutes on each side, until the outside is browned but the inside remains rare.

    Remove and Rest

    Once seared, remove the tuna steaks from the skillet and let them rest for a couple of minutes before slicing.

Assembly

  1. 6

    Plate the Dish

    On a plate, drizzle ponzu sauce and lime juice. Slice the seared tuna steaks into thin slices and arrange them on the plate.

    Add Spicy Tuna and Garnish

    Top the sliced tuna with a spoonful of spicy tuna mix, sprinkle with chopped green onions, sliced jalapeño, and sesame seeds.
