Ingredients

For the Tuna:

  • 1 (2-pound) tuna loin
  • Emeril's Asian Essence, for seasoning
  • Salt freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon ponzu
  • 2 teaspoons sesame oil
  • 1 cup black and white sesame seeds

For the Salad:

For the dressing:

  • 2 teaspoons sesame oil
  • 2 teaspoons mixed black and white sesame seeds
  • 1 tablespoon canola oil
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce

Directions

Season the loin with Asian Essence. Completely coat the entire tuna loin with the salt and cracked black pepper. Pour some ponzu and sesame oil onto a shallow bowl, and dip the loin in to coat. Then, dip loin into sesame seeds to coat. In a saute pan, heat the canola oil. When the pan is smoking hot, sear the tuna on each side for 2 minutes for rare.

    This was my first attempt at making any kind of tuna at home except for the canned solid white of course. The tuna was outstanding. For the salad, I like my dressings just a touch sweet, so I added about 1/2 tsp of sugar. I also added about a cup of sugar snap peas. It was fabulous. I'll definitely make this a regular on my menu.
