Ingredients
- 1 1/2 pounds tuna steaks
- sea salt & fresh ground pepper
- 1 tablespoon olive or sesame oil
- 1 1- inch hunk of ginger
- 4 garlic cloves
- 1 teaspoon wasabi or 1 tablespoon dijon mustard
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 1/3 cup mayonnaise
- 4-5 cups baby arugula
- 1 cup edamame
- 3-4 clementines peeled and sectioned
- 3-4 cups sticky rice
Instructions
- Sprinkle both sides of the tuna with coarse sea salt and pepper. Heat a cast-iron skillet to medium-high heat, drizzle the pan with a bit of olive or sesame oil.
- Place the tuna steaks on the hot griddle and brown them for 1-2 minutes per side to give the meat a nice cooked edge. Remove the pan from heat and allow it to sit for a few minutes before slicing with a very sharp knife.
- In a blender or food processor, combine the ginger, garlic, wasabi or mustard, honey, soy sauce, and mayonnaise until very pureed. Drizzle over everything.
- Toss together the arugula, edamame, and clementines. Serve with sticky rice and sliced seared tuna.
- Enjoy!
