Seared Ahi Tuna With Sesame Rice Noodles image

After searching on this site for seared Ahi Tuna recipes, I wasn't able to find anything like mine. This is a healthy, amazing light dinner for any time of the year but especially yummy for Spring and Summer dining in the sun. The nice thing about this recipe is you can add more or less of the ingredients to your own personal tastes. I love cilantro and lime, so I tend to add more of these ingredients.

Time 24m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 13

¾ cup sesame seeds, divided
½ teaspoon seasoning salt
1 teaspoon ground white pepper
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 tablespoon wasabi powder
1 teaspoon coarse kosher salt
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 eggs
3 fluid ounces milk
2 (4 ounce) tuna steaks (about 3/4 inch thick)
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 (1.12 ounce) package miso soup mix
1 tablespoon soy sauce

Steps:

  • In a shallow bowl, mix together 1/2 cup of sesame seeds, seasoning salt, white pepper, onion powder, wasabi powder, kosher salt and flour; set aside. In a separate bowl, mix together the eggs and milk.
  • Dip tuna steaks in the egg mixture, then dredge in the flour mixture until well coated on both sides. Press on as many extra sesame seeds as possible, so it is well coated. Heat the vegetable oil in a large heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Fry tuna steaks for 2 minutes per side, and immediately remove from heat. The inside of the fish should still be red.
  • To make the soy miso dressing, mix together the miso soup mix and soy sauce. Heat in a small saucepan or microwave, and drizzle over steaks.

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality ingredients. Fresh, flavorful ingredients will make all the difference in this dish. Look for sushi-grade ahi tuna, and use a good quality miso paste.
  • Don't overcook the tuna. Ahi tuna is a delicate fish, and it will become tough if it is overcooked. Cook it for just a few minutes per side, or until it is cooked to your desired doneness.
  • Use a flavorful broth. The broth for the noodles is an important part of this dish, so make sure it has a lot of flavor. Use a good quality dashi, or make your own using kombu and bonito flakes.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different vegetables. The vegetables in this dish are just a suggestion, so feel free to use whatever vegetables you like. Some other good options include broccoli, snap peas, and carrots.
  • Serve the dish immediately. This dish is best served immediately after it is made, so that the noodles are still hot and the tuna is still tender.

The combination of the savory miso broth, the tender tuna, and the crisp vegetables is sure to please everyone at your table. This dish is also very versatile, so you can easily customize it to your own liking. For example, you can add more or less vegetables, or you can use a different type of fish, such as salmon or cod.
