Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/2 cup mayonnaise
3 tablespoons finely chopped green onions
2 teaspoons minced peeled fresh ginger
1 teaspoon soy sauce
1 teaspoon oriental sesame oil
4 3/4-inch-thick tuna steaks (each about 5 ounces)
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
8 1/2-inch-thick slices crusty country-style white bread
1/2 medium English hothouse cucumber, unpeeled, thinly sliced
8 radishes, thinly sliced
1 ripe avocado, pitted, peeled, sliced

Steps:

  • Flavored mayonnaise is easy to make, and it lends added appeal to any sandwich. Here, sesame oil, soy sauce, ginger and green onions give the spread an Asian flair. Mix first 5 ingredients in small bowl to blend. (Can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate.)
  • Sprinkle tuna with salt and pepper. Heat vegetable oil in heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Add tuna and cook to desired doneness, about 2 minutes per side for medium-rare.
  • Spread mayonnaise mixture over 1 side of each bread slice. Top 4 bread slices with cucumber, radishes, then avocado, dividing equally. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Top with tuna steaks. Place remaining bread slices, mayonnaise side down, atop tuna. Cut sandwiches in half and serve immediately.

Really enjoyed this recipe. We are pescatarians and always on the lookout for good seafood recipes. This one is a keeper.

Super tasty. I made it in a large skillet not my wok and it turned out perfectly.

These are really tasty but you have to watch the saltiness of your soy sauce. I think in the future I will just season the tuna with salt and pepper, add the coconut milk, heat it through and then top with the rest of the ingredients.

It doesn't get much simpler than this recipe and it is delicious. I have served it over rice and sandwiched on a roll.

This recipe was a bit too spicy for my taste, but it was still good. I will definitely be making it again, but I will use less chili sauce next time.
