Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Marinade

    In a bowl, combine soy sauce, sesame oil, lime juice, minced garlic, grated ginger, honey, and red pepper flakes. Whisk until well combined.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Ahi Belly

    Place the ahi belly in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over it. Ensure the fish is well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

Cooking

    Cook Ahi Belly

    Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Remove the ahi belly from the marinade and shake off excess. Grill or sear the ahi belly for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until cooked through and slightly charred.

    Prepare Sides

    While the fish is cooking, steam the broccoli until tender and grill the asparagus until tender and slightly charred. Prepare the cooked white rice according to package instructions.
