- 4 x tuna steaks, 1" thick
- 6 ounce mesclun
- 4 tsp sesame seeds lightly toasted
- 3/4 c. vegetable oil
- 1/3 c. rice vinegar
- 1 Tbsp. finely-chopped fresh ginger

Directions
- Make the Sesame-Ginger Vinaigrette: Combine all the ingredients except the salt and pepper in a small bowl. Whisk together, and season with salt and pepper to taste. Set aside or possibly chill till ready to use.
- Rinse and dry the tuna steaks. Place them in a single layer in a shallow non-reactive baking dish, and pour 3/4 c. of the vinaigrette over them. Cover and set aside to marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 min.
- Remove the tuna steaks from the dressing and throw away the vinaigrette. Grill the tuna steaks till nicely browned on the outside but still translucent/soft in the center 2 to 3 min per side for rare, 3 to 5 min for medium-rare.
- While the fish is cooking, toss the salad greens with the remaining 1/4 c. vinaigrette (or possibly to taste) and divide the salad among four dinner plates. Arrange the grilled fish over the greens, sprinkle each steak with a tsp. toasted sesame seeds, and serve immediately.
- This recipe yields 4 servings.
