Seared Ahi Tuna Salad
This came out sooo great. Just delicious. The perfect light, healthy dinner on a hot Spring day. I didn't measure things, but here's how it goes:
Seared Ahi Tuna Salad
(serves 2)
- 1 7 oz (or so) thick Ahi tuna steak
- Equal amounts of baby spinach and arugula
- 6 basil leaves
- lightly cooked, shelled edamame
- a little feta cheese (I use light, it tastes just as good), crumbled
- 2 scallions, sliced
- Toasted, slivered almonds
- Toasted sesame seeds
- Five-spice powder (plenty)
- Salt and pepper
- Red wine vinaigrette salad dressing
- Place spinach, arugula, feta, almonds, and edamame on two plates. Cut up three basil leaves onto each plate, and sprinkle one scallion chopped onto each plate.
- Spray a non-stick pan with cooking spray and put the heat on High. Let it heat up.
- In the mean time, place the sesame seeds, five spice powder, salt and pepper on a plate. Coat all sides of the tuna steak with this mixture.
- Sear the tuna on all sides (you may have to hold it on its side with tongues).
- When seared to your liking, slice the tuna on a cutting board and place slices onto each plate. Drizzle with salad dressing.
- Serve and enjoy!
