Ingredients
Cooking spray
4 tuna steaks (about 5 ounces each)
Salt and freshly cracked black pepper
1 cup diced pineapple
1 ripe papaya, peeled, seeded and diced
1/4 cup minced red onion
1 serrano chile pepper, seeded and minced
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
2 tablespoons freshly chopped cilantro leaves
1 teaspoon hot chili oil
8 ounces somen noodles, cooked according to package directions
Directions
- Coat a stove-top grill pan or griddle with cooking spray and set over medium-high heat to preheat. Season both sides of tuna with salt and cracked pepper. Place tuna on hot pan and cook 2 to 3 minutes per side for medium doneness.
