1
Prepare the Tuna
Season the albacore tuna filets with salt and pepper on both sides. Coat each filet with sesame seeds, pressing gently to ensure the seeds stick.
2
Cook the Tuna
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sesame crusted tuna filets and sear for about 2-3 minutes on each side for medium-rare doneness, or longer if desired. Remove from heat and let rest.
3
Prepare the Avocado and Tomato
Slice the avocado and tomato into wedges or cubes according to preference.
4
Assemble the Dish
On a plate, arrange the avocado and tomato. Slice the cooked tuna and place on top. Garnish with fresh Thai basil leaves and drizzle ponzu sauce over everything.
5
Serve
Serve immediately while the tuna is warm and enjoy!
