Ingredients
AHI TUNA MARINADE:--
3 tbsp GF soy sauce
1 tsp SIDS CRAZY LEMON
1 tbsp Sesame oil
1 tsp SIDS SALT & PEPPER
Juice of 1 lemon
1 tbsp raw bush honey
4 tuna steaks
3 tbsp SIDS PEPPER & GARLIC OIL
1 avocado, sliced
Black sesame seeds, for garnish
Directions
In a small bowl combine soy sauce, SIDS CRAZY LEMON, sesame oil, SIDS SALT & PEPPER, lemon juice, and honey. Whisk to combine.
Put tuna steaks in a shallow dish then pour marinade over them. Cover and place in the refrigerator for 3-6 hours. The longer the better.
Take out the tuna and over high heat get SIDS PEPPER & GARLIC OIL screaming hot in a cast iron pan. (I use a dutch oven because the sides are tall and there is less splatter)
When the pan is very hot, lay one tuna steak down in the oil. Cook for 45 to 60 seconds, depending on the level of rareness you like.
Flip to the other side and cook for an additional 45 to 60 seconds.
Remove from pan and lay on a cutting board to rest for 5 minutes. Repeat with 2nd tuna steak.
With a serrated knife, cut slices against the grain of the tuna.
Top with sesame seeds and sliced avocado.
