Ingredients

  1. 2 x 150g tuna saku steaks
  2. 2 tbsp white sesame seeds
  3. 2 tbsp black sesame seeds
  4. 1/2 tsp granulated garlic or onion powder
  5. 1/2 tsp dried thyme or Italian seasoning
  6. 1/4 tsp salt
  7. 1/4 tsp black pepper
  8. 1/2 tsp sugar
  9. 1 tbsp olive oil
  10. Lemon wedges, to serve
  11. Soy sauce or ponzu, for dipping (optional)

Method

  1. In a small bowl, combine the sesame seeds, granulated garlic or onion powder, dried thyme or Italian seasoning, salt, pepper, and sugar. Stir until evenly mixed.
  2. Coat the tuna saku steaks evenly with the sesame crust mixture, pressing gently to ensure the coating sticks well to the fish.
  3. Heat olive oil in a non-stick pan or skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the tuna saku steaks to the pan.
  4. Cook the tuna steaks for 1-2 minutes on each side, searing until the crust is golden and the tuna is rare to medium-rare in the center (adjust time for preferred doneness).
  5. Remove the tuna from the pan and let it rest for a minute. Slice and serve immediately, optionally with a dipping sauce or garnish of your choice.
