Pan-Seared Blackened Ahi Tuna with Veggies

Here’s an easy, healthy recipe featuring tender ahi-tuna for when you’re short on time.

The Fixings:

• 12 oz. ahi tuna steaks
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 2 cups chopped vegetables (we like peppers, carrots, onions, broccoli, and garlic)
• 1 tablespoon sesame oil
• 1 cup jasmine rice
• Toasted sesame seeds

For the marinade:

• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon sesame oil
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 tablespoon Sun Valley Spicy-Sweet Mustard

The Cooking:

1. Cook rice.
2. Combine marinade ingredients. Use half to cover tuna steaks, and marinate for 10 minutes.
3. Heat non-stick skillet to med-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon olive oil. Pat dry tuna steak and pan sear 2-3 minutes each side to desired doneness. Remove and let rest.
4. Sear diced vegetables in the same pan. Add a drizzle of sesame oil (about 1 tablespoon - whatever feels right for your amount of vegetables).
5. Slice the tuna and place over jasmine rice. Serve seared vegetables on the side. Drizzle with remaining marinade and sprinkle with sesame seeds. For an extra flavor kick, add more Spicy-Sweet Sun Valley Mustard on top.
