I had a goal this weekend to try a bunch of new recipes and flavors. So far, I have been pretty happy with what has come out of my kitchen. I normally don't do a lot of Asian inspired dishes and was intrigued by this recipe. I changed a few things from the original recipe as I didn't have certain items in my cabinets. With our impending move (location TBD), I don't want to stock up on items in the pantry, rather I want to get rid of things. This allowed me to use some of the sesame oil and rice vinegar that I have had for quite some time.
The more I ate this dish, the more I liked it. The flavors were fresh and good for a summer day. The husband and I had this for lunch on the deck. I think we should eat on the deck every nice weather day we have since it has been so awful out recently.
Recipe adapted from Sunset
6 tablespoons rice vinegar
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 teaspoon horseradish
12 ounces fresh tuna, sliced 1/2 inch thick
10 cups of bite size pieces rinsed and crisped iceberg lettuce (about one head)
2 tablespoons sesame oil
2 teaspoons ginger
1/2 thinly sliced green onions
1 cup thinly sliced radishes
- In a small bowl, stir together vinegar, soy sauce, and horseradish.
- Rinse and pat dry fish. Cut fish into 3 inch long strips.
- Mound lettuce equally on four dinner plates.
- In a 12 inch frying pan heat sesame oil over medium high heat. Add tuna and ginger and stir fry until just opaque but moist looking in center.
- Add tuna to bowl with dressing and toss to coat. Top lettuce with fish mixture. Top salad with green onions and radishes.
