Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces Fresh tuna steaks
- 8 ounces Soba noodles
- 3 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon Wasabi paste
- 1 tablespoon Rice vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Honey
- 2 teaspoons Sesame oil
- 2 teaspoons Vegetable oil
- 1 tablespoon Sesame seeds
- 2 stalks Green onions (sliced)
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 1 piece Lime (for garnish)
Instructions
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook the soba noodles according to the package instructions. Drain, rinse with cold water, and set aside.
In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, wasabi paste, rice vinegar, honey, and sesame oil to create the dressing. Set aside.
Season the tuna steaks on both sides with salt and black pepper.
Heat the vegetable oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the tuna steaks for about 1-2 minutes on each side, depending on your preferred level of doneness. Remove from the pan and let rest for a few minutes before slicing into thin strips.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked soba noodles with the dressing until evenly coated.
Plate the noodles and top with the sliced tuna steaks.
Sprinkle sesame seeds and sliced green onions on top for garnish.
Serve with lime wedges on the side for an extra pop of citrus flavor.
