Good to Know
Be sure to take a look at the tuna steaks when purchasing. They should be bright pink, not gray.
Instructions
Whisk together marmalade, orange juice, vinegar, soy sauce, sesame oil, and chili garlic sauce.
Heat peanut oil in a sauté pan over medium-high. Add tuna and sear 2 minutes per side; transfer to a plate and tent with foil.
Add marmalade sauce to pan over medium heat; cook until thickened, 2 minutes, then stir in cilantro. Top tuna with sauce and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
If you’re not using the tuna right away, store it in a resealable plastic bag set on top of an ice-filled dish.
To get the best sear on the tuna, be sure the pan and oil are hot before adding the steaks.
To add even more flavor to the marmalade sauce, heat it in the pan used for cooking the tuna.
