Black and White Sesame Seared Tuna, Sauteed Veggies, and Mango

Oops. Wrong Tuna

A pattern is beginning to form: Caitlin is more of the play-by-play announcer, while I am the bumbling idiot of a color commentator.  That is understandable, what with her being kind of a food wizard, the Harry Potter of the kitchen, if you will.  Maybe that is a good setup, as a majority of the meals have been concocted by her, while I am attempting to play Sous Chef, more likely just getting in her way.  On to the play by play.

1. Buy Sushi grade tuna. See below, man-sized and lady-sized pieces.
2. Season with freshly ground black pepper.
3. Heat oil in a pan on high.
4. Sear it, FAST! The inside should still be raw.
5. Dip in B&W sesame seeds.
