Sesame-Crusted Tuna with Ginger-Peanut Rice
Randy Mayor; Jan Gautro
If you like your tuna cooked rare, buy sushi-grade tuna.
How to Make It
Step 1
To prepare rice, cook rice according to package directions, omitting salt and fat. Stir in 1/4 cup onions, peanut sauce, ginger, and 1/4 teaspoon salt; keep warm.
Step 2
To prepare tuna, heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Combine tuna and 2 tablespoons soy sauce in a bowl, tossing gently to coat. Sprinkle tuna with 1/4 teaspoon salt. Dredge edges of tuna in sesame seeds. Add tuna to pan, and cook 3 minutes on each side or until desired degree of doneness. Serve tuna over rice. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon soy sauce; sprinkle with 2 tablespoons onions.

This was easy and the results exceeded my expectations. I served it with sauteed mustard greens. I cooked the tuna longer since it was thick, and it came out just right.

So easy and wonderful flavors! I also served this with carrots with lime and ginger. Would not cook the tuna as long as it said - we like the tuna rare.

Followed the recipe to the tee......ended up adding a few tablespoons more of peanut sauce to the rice or flavor and everyone loved it!! My 15 and 6 year old ate every bit and asked for more. 3 minutes on each side was perfection for 5, 1 inch fillets of tuna. For sure Im adding to my menu.
