Thon poêlé avec une croûte de graines de sésame noir recette
Marinating • 1 hour
Serves 4
4 tbsp olive oil, plus extra for searing
1 garlic clove, finely chopped
1 fresh red Thai chile pepper, finely chopped
2 tbsp black sesame seeds, plus extra for garnish (optional)
2 best-quality ahi tuna steaks, about 10oz (300g) each, halved lengthwise
2 radishes
juice of 1 lemon
½ bunch of fresh chives, chopped into 1in (5cm) lengths
sea salt
Method:
1 Put the oil, garlic, chile, sesame seeds, and a good pinch of sea salt on a large flat dish or baking sheet. Mix well to combine.
2 Pat the fish dry with paper towels. Press each piece into the sesame seed mixture, pressing and turning to coat all over. Leave to marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour.

4 To serve, put a seared tuna steak on each of 4 serving plates, and drizzle with the remaining lemon juice. Drain the radish matchsticks, and scatter over the top. Sprinkle with the chives and a few extra sesame seeds, and serve immediately.
