5-Spice Seared Ahi with Warm Fingerling Potato Salad and Wasabi Vinaigrette<\/b><\/p>\n

Serves 4<\/p>\n

4, 6 oz. Ahi tuna steaks<\/p>\n

\u00be pound fingerling potatoes<\/p>\n

4 cups \tclean, stemmed spinach leaves<\/p>\n

2 stalks celery, sliced \u00bd inch on a bias<\/p>\n

2 tomatoes, quartered, meat removed, small dice<\/p>\n

1 bunch green onions, sliced thin on a bias<\/p>\n

2 Tbl.\tolive oil<\/p>\n

1 Tbl. \ttoasted sesame seeds<\/p>\n

\u00bc cup \tfresh lime juice<\/p>\n

\u00bc cup \tsoy sauce<\/p>\n

1 tsp \tkosher salt<\/p>\n

\u00bd tsp \tground pepper<\/p>\n

Heat oven to 400 degrees. Place potatoes into a small pot and cover with cold water. Bring to a boil and then turn to medium-low heat. Simmer until potatoes are just soft. Cool completely. Slice each potato in half lengthwise. Place 1 Tbl. of the olive oil into an oven-safe saut\u00e9 pan and place over medium-high heat. When the oil is hot, carefully lay the potatoes, face down, into the pan. Place into the hot oven and roast for 10 minutes. Place the spinach, tomatoes, celery, green onions and eggs into a large mixing bowl. While the potatoes are cooking rub the Ahi steaks with the remaining tablespoon of oil and sprinkle with 5-spice seasoning. Use about 1 tsp. of seasoning per steak. Heat another saut\u00e9 pan over medium-high heat until hot. Gently lay the Ahi steaks into the pan and sear for 60 seconds per side. Deglaze pan with the soy sauce and lime juice. Allow the liquid to reduce to syrup and coat the steaks in the syrupy mixture. Set aside until salad is finished. Remove the potatoes and carefully pour the potatoes and hot oil into the waiting mixing bowl. The hot oil and potatoes will wilt the spinach slightly. Add half of the Wasabi Vinaigrette and toss. Place equal amounts of the salad on 4 serving plates. Bunch into tight mounds in the center of each plate. Slice the Ahi into 6 thin slices per steak and fan over the top of the mound of salad. Drizzle with remaining vinaigrette and sprinkle with sesame seeds.<\/p>\n
