Ingredients

Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Marinade

    In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, sesame oil, grated ginger, minced garlic, and lime juice until well combined.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Tuna

    Place the ahi tuna steaks in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them. Ensure the tuna is evenly coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Grill or Pan

    Preheat a grill or a skillet over medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grill grates or the skillet to prevent sticking.

  4. 4

    Cook the Tuna

    Remove the tuna from the marinade, shaking off excess liquid. Season each steak with salt and black pepper to taste. Grill or sear each steak for about 1-2 minutes per side for rare, or longer if desired.

  5. 5

    Garnish and Serve

    Once cooked to your liking, remove the tuna steaks from heat. Sprinkle with chopped green onions and sesame seeds. Serve over a bed of mixed greens.
