Sesame Crusted Tuna

Method

Preparation

1

Prepare the Soba Noodles

Cook the soba noodles according to the package instructions. Drain and set aside.

2

Prepare the Vegetables

In a mixing bowl, combine bell peppers, carrot, and cucumber. Toss lightly and set aside.

3

Prepare the Wasabi Butter Sauce

In a small saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Once melted, stir in the wasabi paste until well combined. Remove from heat and set aside.

4

Prepare the Tuna

Season the tuna steaks with soy sauce on both sides. Press the sesame seeds onto the tuna to coat.

5

Cook the Tuna

Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the tuna steaks for about 2-3 minutes on each side for medium-rare, adjusting time according to desired doneness.

6

Plate the Dish

On each plate, arrange the soba noodles, top with seasonal vegetables, and place the sesame-crusted tuna on top. Drizzle with wasabi butter sauce before serving.
