Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 tablespoons lime juice
1 1/2 tablespoons fish sauce
1 teaspoon sugar
1 teaspoon dark sesame oil
Coarse salt and cracked black pepper
1 medium Napa cabbage
1 bag shredded carrots
1/2 cup basil leaves, torn into quarters
1/2 cup mint leaves, torn

4 tablespoons black and white sesame seeds
1 pound ahi tuna steaks
2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • In a large salad bowl, whisk together lime juice, fish sauce, sugar, and sesame oil. Taste and adjust seasonings with salt and pepper. Cut cabbage in 1/2 lengthwise and slice into thin ribbons. Place cabbage, carrots, basil, mint, and cilantro in the bowl with the dressing. Toss to combine. Set aside.
