Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 300 grams fresh tuna fillet
- 250 grams broccoli florets
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 2 units garlic cloves
- 1 teaspoon ginger (grated)
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch
- 3 tablespoons water
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon sesame seeds
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Cut the fresh tuna fillet into bite-sized cubes and set aside.
In a small bowl, mix soy sauce, honey, sesame oil, grated ginger, and minced garlic cloves to create the stir fry sauce.
In another small bowl, dissolve the cornstarch in water and set aside.
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
Add the tuna pieces to the skillet, season with salt and black pepper, and cook for 1-2 minutes on each side until seared but still tender. Remove the tuna from the skillet and set aside.
Add the remaining tablespoon of vegetable oil to the skillet and toss in the broccoli florets. Stir fry for 3-4 minutes until the broccoli is bright green and slightly tender.
Pour the stir fry sauce over the broccoli and stir well. Allow the mixture to simmer for 1-2 minutes.
Stir in the cornstarch slurry to thicken the sauce, cooking for an additional 1-2 minutes until the sauce coats the broccoli evenly.
Return the cooked tuna to the skillet and gently toss to combine, cooking for 1 more minute to heat through.
Transfer the stir fry to a serving dish, sprinkle with sesame seeds, and serve immediately. Enjoy!
