Ingredients:

Serving

2 tbsp lime juice
1 1/2 tbsp fish sauce
1 tsp sugar
1 tsp 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
1/2 cup cilantro leaves, roughly chopped
4 tbsp black and white sesame seeds
1 lb ahi tuna steaks
2 tsp extra-virgin olive oil

Directions:

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.
Pour the sesame seeds out onto a plate. Press the tuna into the seeds on both sides, pressing gently so the sesame seeds stick.
Heat the olive oil in a 12-inch non-stick pan over medium high heat. Add fish to pan and cook until rare, about 2 minutes per side. Alternatively, cook until done to your likeness. Slice thin and distribute among 4 serving plates. Serve with a generous portion of Napa cabbage slaw.
