This game fish will bite 'cha back! I serve this seared tuna garnished with a julienne of leek, carrot, snow peas and mung beans.

Time 1h10m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 tablespoon five-spice powder
1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger
2 tablespoons sake
2 tablespoons rice vinegar
2 tablespoons tamari
¼ cup sesame oil
2 pounds ahi tuna steaks, each about 1 inch thick
1 pound wasabi peas, crushed
2 tablespoons light brown sugar

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, whisk together the five-spice powder, ginger, sake, rice vinegar, tamari, and sesame oil. Add the tuna steaks and turn to coat; allow to marinate for 30 minutes.
  • Combine the crushed wasabi peas and brown sugar. Remove the tuna steaks from the marinade, and press into the pea mixture to coat. Pour the marinade into a small saucepan and bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to medium, and simmer until the sauce has reduced and thickened, 5 to 10 minutes.
  • While the sauce is cooking, sear the tuna in a small amount of oil in a skillet over medium-high heat to desired doneness. Pour sauce over tuna to serve.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my tuna steak was overcooked. The crust was also a bit too salty for my taste.

The wasabi crust on this tuna steak was amazing! It gave the fish a nice kick of heat without being overpowering. The tuna was also cooked perfectly, it was still slightly pink in the middle.
