The Best Seared Ahi Tuna
There are, literally, hundreds of different ways to prepare Ahi Tuna but I like mine Seasoned and Seared. That usually means that dry ingredients are applied, on all sides, to a cut of Raw Ahi Tuna then cooked and “seared” in a dry frying pan. Ingredients vary but spices generally get the best results, rarely, herbs are ever applied. But, one of the easiest ways to make this appetizer is to keep it simple and season with Kosher Salt and Black Pepper.
Ahi Tuna Dipping Sauce
The best part about this Ahi tuna recipe is that it comes with a fantastic Wasabi Vinaigrette that has a sweet Soy Sauce and Sesame Oil influence. Tell me that doesn’t sound superb! Sushi fans alike come running for this appetizer anywhere it’s served. I’ve seen similar recipes served at The Outback, Cheese Cake Factory and P.F. Chang’s even. All of which have their own unique style. I think that this one is the easiest to do and that anyone the loves tuna is going to like it.
