Ingredients

    Ahi Tuna Steak, 16 oz
    Kikkoman Lite Soy Sauce, 2 tbsp
    Dark Sesame Oil, 1 tbsp
    Ginger Root, 3tsp
    Garlic, 1 clove
    Lime Juice, 1 Tbsp
    Black Pepper, freshly ground, 2 tsp
    Scallions, raw, 1 Tbsp chopped
    Corn Starch, 1 Tbsp

Directions

1.Lightly coat Tuna Steak in ground pepper

2. Mix the marinade ingredients (everything except corn starch) together and coat the tuna steaks with the marinade, cover tightly, and refrigerate for at least an hour.

3. Pour off marinade, set aside

4. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium high to high heat. When the pan is hot, remove the tuna steaks from the marinade and sear them for a minute to a minute and a half on each side. Should lightly color outside, very rare inside. ( even a little longer if you want the tuna less rare)

5. Remove from pan and slice into 1/4-inch thick slices. Sprinkle with a few green onion slices.

6. Heat marinade add corn starch until thickened. Pour over sliced steak.
