Blackened Sesame Tuna with Asian Greens

Ingredients

• 2 Ahi tuna filets
• 2 tbsp roasted sesame seeds
• 1/2 tsp sea salt
• 1 tbsp coarse grind black pepper
• 1/2 tsp ground coriander
• 1 tsp garlic powder
• 1 tbsp vegetable oil

Salad

• 4 cups mixed salad greens
• 2 chopped green onions

Asian Dressing

• 1/4 cup vegetable oil
• 1/4 cup low sodium soy sauce
• 1 Tbsp brown sugar
• 1 Tbsp rice wine vinegar
• 1 tsp minced garlic

Directions

1. Mix the sesame seeds, salt, pepper, garlic, and coriander together in a shallow dish and dredge the tuna coating both sides.
2. Mix the dressing ingredients together in a mason jar and shake well. 
3. Heat the vegetable oil in a large non stick pan over medium high. Sear the tuna 2-5 minutes per side depending on how done you like it drizzling each side with a little Asian dressing.
4. Let the tuna rest 5 minutes.
5. Mix the salad ingredients together and drizzle with some of the dressing. (you won't be using all of the dressing - it can be saved in the refrigerator for up to three weeks)
