Super Fast & Easy Seared Tuna With 20 Second Asian Slaw!
January 5th, 2010I don’t know where you are but where I am-Atlanta, GA- it’s unseasonably cold right now. And this weather has me dreaming of a nice light meal beachside. So close your eyes and imagine you are at a Spa in Miami because with 3 core ingredients this meal takes very little effort, very little time and it is very light! BTW- I used frozen tuna from Publix to make this as real world as possible and it was good! After all, not everyone can go to a fancy gourmet market and get sashimi grade tuna. . .
Serves 4 in about 10 minutes!
- 4 4-6 oz Tuna Steaks, if frozen-thaw overnight in fridge
- 2 Tbs Olive oil
- Salt & Pepper to taste
- 2 Heads Napa cabbage, shredded thin
- ¼ Sesame-ginger marinade or salad dressing
- Chopped green onions to garnish-optional
- Heat a cast iron skillet, non stick skillet, or grill pan over HIGH heat
- Rub tuna steaks with olive oil and season with salt & pepper
- Sear tuna over very high heat for just a couple of minutes on each side (for rare-medium rare)
- Remove tuna steaks from heat and slice steaks
- Serve over Napa cabbage, drizzle with sesame-ginger dressing and garnish with green onions
