Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 3 teaspoons wasabi powder
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 2 (4 -6 ounce) tuna steaks, 1 inch thick (or more)
  • 1 lb fresh green beans
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 1/4 cup golden brown sugar

Method

  • Mix soy, wasabi and garlic powder in a glas 8X10 baking dish. Add tuna and turn several times to coat. Let stand 15 minutes each side. (For extra flavor, I marinate up to 30 minutes each side but dont do longer because the marinade will over whelm the tuna eventually).
  • Cook beans in a large pot of boiling water for about 4 minutes.
  • Heat sesame oil at med-high. When hot, sear tuna 2 (ish) minutes each side- pepper each side before searing. Remove tuna steaks and add the marinade, brown sugar and beans. Cook until reduced - about 4 minutes.
  • Serve with white or brown rice.
