Health benefits of Wasabi Sesame Tuna

Sesame seeds help with progesterone balance. Lignans found in in sesame seeds help to prevent excess estrogen production. Tuna is great for a high protein diet as it has 33 grams of protein within its housing, with no pesky carbohydrates to worry about. In addition to this, tuna contains B vitamins and vitamin D, both of which are vital to fighting back against PCOS.

Ingredients

1 tbsp wasabi paste
12 oz ahi tuna
1/4 cup soy sauce
1/2 tsp black pepper
1/4 cup sesame seeds

Instructions

1. In shallow dish, combine soy sauce, wasabi paste and pepper. Mix well.

2. Add the tuna and turn thoroughly coating both sides.

3. Let sit for 10 minutes or plan ahead and let marinate overnight in a zipper bag or food saver bag.

4. Coat a pan with non-stick cooking spray or one turn of the pan with olive oil. Heat pan on medium to high heat.

5. Place the sesame seeds in another shallow dish, add the tuna and turn to coat completely.

6. Sear the tuna for 1 to 2 minutes per side, or until browned or cooked to desired doneness. Slice thinly and serve with brown rice or vegetables.

7. Note: fish cooks fast! It will be dry and chewy if overcooked. These do not come out of a pan fiery hot, but with wasabi flavor. You can always add more heat if you wish.
