Ruth’s Chris Ahi Tuna (Print Version)
# Ingredients:
01 -
2 sushi-grade Ahi Tuna Steaks
02 -
2 tablespoons white sesame seeds
03 -
2 tablespoons black sesame seeds
04 -
2 tablespoons soy sauce
05 -
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
06 -
1 tablespoon honey or brown sugar
07 -
1 teaspoon wasabi paste (optional)
08 -
1 tablespoon olive oil or avocado oil

# Instructions:
01 -
Pat the tuna steaks dry with paper towels and lightly coat them with olive oil or avocado oil on all sides.
02 -
Press each side of the tuna into the sesame seeds, ensuring a generous and even coating.
03 -
Heat a pan over medium-high heat and add oil. Once the oil is hot, sear the tuna steaks for 1-2 minutes on each side, creating a golden-brown crust while keeping the center rare.

Remove the tuna from the pan and let it rest for a minute before slicing into thick pieces.

To make the soy glaze, combine soy sauce, rice vinegar, and honey (or brown sugar) in a small saucepan. Simmer over low heat for 2-3 minutes until thickened slightly.
06 -
Arrange the tuna slices on a plate and drizzle with the soy glaze. Garnish with microgreens or mixed greens for added freshness and color.
