Mod de preparare

Pas cu pas

1
Pat the skipjack tuna fillet dry with paper towels and season generously with sea salt and black pepper on all sides.
Aproximativ 2 min.
Nota bucătarului: Ensuring the tuna is very dry helps achieve a better sear.
2
Heat the vegetable oil in a heavy-bottomed skillet or cast-iron pan over high heat until it just begins to smoke.
Aproximativ 2 min.
Nota bucătarului: A very hot pan is crucial for a good sear and crunchy crust.
3
Carefully place the seasoned tuna fillet in the hot pan and sear for 30-60 seconds on each of its four sides, creating a dark brown crust while keeping the center raw.
Aproximativ 4 min.
Nota bucătarului: Adjust cooking time based on the thickness of your tuna and desired doneness for the crust.
4
Immediately remove the seared tuna from the pan and transfer it to a plate. Let it rest for 5-10 minutes.
Aproximativ 10 min.
Nota bucătarului: Resting helps the tuna retain its juices and makes for easier, cleaner slicing.
5
While the tuna rests, prepare the dressing by whisking together the soy sauce, rice vinegar, lemon juice, grated ginger, and minced garlic in a small bowl.
Aproximativ 3 min.
Nota bucătarului: Taste the dressing and adjust the balance of flavors to your preference.
6
Slice the rested tuna very thinly, about 0.5 cm thick, against the grain.
Aproximativ 3 min.
Nota bucătarului: Use a very sharp knife for clean, even slices.
7
Arrange the sliced tuna on a serving platter, pour the dressing evenly over the tuna, and garnish with sliced green onion.
Aproximativ 1 min.
Nota bucătarului: Serve immediately to enjoy the contrast of the warm crust and cool, rare interior.
