Categories     Salad     Leafy Green     Fry     Low Carb     Quick & Easy     Dinner     Grill/Barbecue

Yield 2 people

Number Of Ingredients 21

8 ounce wild caught fresh Ahi tuna steak (I used Hawaiian Bigeye, ask your fishmonger for tuna that is suitable to eat raw)
1 Tablespoon black sesame seeds
1 Tablespoon sesame seeds
1 teaspoon crushed red pepper
Kosher salt
1 teaspoon canola oil
Salad:
4 cups organic mixed greens (I used a blend of spring greens and baby spinach)
2-3 Tablespoons shelled edamame (optional)
3 Tablespoons diced red bell pepper (optional)
fresh lime (optional)
Dressing/Dipping Sauce (makes 1/2 cup):
1/4 cup plus 1 Tablespoon O Ginger Rice Vinegar (O Yuzu Rice Vinegar would work well, too)
1/4 cup toasted sesame oil
1 1/2 Tablespoons tahini paste (I used Artisana Organic Tahini that I found at Whole Foods, but any tahini paste will work)
1 Tablespoon honey
1 large clove garlic, finely minced
1 teaspoon finely minced fresh ginger (less than a one inch knob)
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
Sesame Ginger Dressing
Whisk all the dressing/dipping sauce ingredients together until emulsified and well blended.

Steps:

  • Using your hands, coat both sides of the tuna with the sesame seed mixture. Pat and press to be sure it's well coated. Heat non-stick skillet to high and add canola oil to coat bottom of pan. Skillet should be extremely hot, then place sesame-coated tuna in pan and allow to sear for 45 seconds then flip and sear another 45 seconds. Pulling it all together: Mix ingredients for salad (mixed greens, edamame, bell pepper) together and toss with a small amount of dressing. Arrange on plates and top with the sliced tuna. Serve with extra dressing on the side to dip your tuna in.

SESAME GINGER VINAIGRETTE DRESSING



Sesame Ginger Vinaigrette Dressing image

This is almost identical to one of my favorite salad dressing at the resturaunt Bread and Company. There, it is served on a strawberry fields salad, but it makes a delicious dressing on any salad, fruity, oriental, or as a mariande. Just like at the resturaunt it is oily, but thats what makes it so tasty! Shake well before using, and try not to eat it as soup!

GINGER SESAME SALAD DRESSING



GINGER SESAME SALAD DRESSING image

Categories     Sauce     Ginger     No-Cook     Quick & Easy     Vegan

Yield 2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 cup vegetable oil
2 1/2 TBLS minced fresh ginger
2/4 cup chopped onion
1/2 cup chopped celery
1/2 tsp sugar
1/4 cup lightly toasted sesame seeds
Dash pepper
Dash celery seed
1/2 tsp ketchup
1/3 cup soy sauce
1/3 cup apple cider vinegar

Steps:

  • Place all ingredients except for soy sauce and vinegar in a blender. Blend about 30 seconds. Add soy sauce and vinegar and blend another 30 seconds. Keep airtight in the refrigerator and shake well before using.

Tips:

  • For the best flavor and a balanced dressing, use fresh ginger and lemongrass. Chop them finely, and don't grate them, so you can get bits of the flavorsome aromatics in each bite. You also can use a microplane, but be careful because ginger can easily become watery.
  • If you find the dressing too spicy, add more honey to balance the flavors. You also can add more lime juice for a brighter taste.
  • Before adding the dressing to the marinade, taste it and adjust the seasoning until it tastes slightly salty and tangy. This ensures the marinade has enough flavor to permeate the chicken or vegetables.
  • The dressing is versatile and can be used as a dipping sauce for spring rolls, tofu, or grilled shrimp. It also can be drizzled over noodles or roasted vegetables for a flavorful boost.
  • Feel free to adjust the proportions of the ingredients in the dressing to suit your taste. If you want a spicier dressing, use more ginger or chili peppers. If you want a sweeter dressing, add more honey or maple syrup.

Conclusion:

This ginger sesame dressing is an easy and flavorful Asian condiment that can be used as a marinade, dipping sauce, or dressing. It's perfect for grilled chicken or vegetables. The dressing is also versatile and can be adjusted to suit your taste. So next time you're looking for a simple and flavorful way to add some Asian flair to your meal, give this ginger sesame dressing a try. You won't be disappointed.
