Ingredients

Directions

In a flat, shallow dish, combine the soy, rice vinegar, sambal, white and light green scallions, garlic and ginger. Add the tuna and roll around to get the marinade on all sides. Cover and let sit in the fridge for up to 2 hours, turning the tuna periodically.

Remove the tuna from the fridge and let sit in the marinade outside of the fridge for 20 to 30 minutes.

When the tuna has come to room temperature, remove it from the marinade. With a paper towel, gently remove some of the excess marinade.

Coat a large saute pan with peanut oil and bring it to a VERY high heat. When the pan is VERY hot but not quite smoking, pull the pan off the heat and add the tuna to the pan. Return the pan to the heat and sear the tuna for 1 minute on each side.

Remove the tuna from the pan, let rest for 4 to 5 minutes and slice into 1/4 to 1/2-inch thick slices. Sprinkle with the dark green sliced scallion tops.

Serve immediately with a little extra soy on the side if desired.

    This recipe is awesome ! We all (5 of us totally enjoyed it. My wife who usually does not eat any kind of fish besides sushi, totally loved it. I can't wait to get more ahi so that we can eat it again. Very, Very good!

    This blows the idea that you have to spend hours in the kitchen to get a fabulous meal right out of the water. This was so quick to put together. I used sriracha because I didn't have sambal oelek, and it was still delicious. Also, I used nice thick tuna steaks that I bought at the grocery store for a pretty reasonable price. While I am sure the sushi quality tuna would have been better, if you don't have the budget for that, try it anyway. I added a touch of sweetness to some of the marinade and used it as a sauce to stir fry some veg to go along with it. They were yummy, too. A keeper!

    I made this for dinner last night. It was really simple to throw together and quite tasty. I would certainly make this again.
