Sesame Soy Tuna

I really love Japanese flavours and this grilled tuna steak cooks really quickly and is so healthy! I feel quite fancy eating seared tuna at home so it’s definitely a great date night dish.

Ingredients

2 large tuna steaks
3 tbsp soy sauce
1 tbsp sesame oil
1 tsp fish sauce
1 tsp minced ginger
1 garlic clove, minced
1 tbsp rice vinegar
1 tbsp lemon juice
Sesame seeds to coat the outside of the steaks
Olive oil

Instructions

Step 1

Mix the soy sauce, sesame oil, fish sauce, ginger, garlic, rice vinegar and lemon juice.

Step 2

Marinate your fish with this mixture for at least half an hour.

Step 3

Heat a grill pan to medium high heat and add a drizzle of oil (1½ tbsp) to coat the pan.

Step 4

Remove the fish from the marinade and cover each side with sesame seeds.

Step 5

Sear the tuna for about 1.5 minutes each side. Cook for longer if you like your tuna more well done.

Step 6

Serve with green vegetables.
