Ahi Tuna - Seared Salt and Pepper Ahi Tuna with Wasabi Vinaigrette - PoorMansGourmet 

I have made this about half a dozen times and I (obviously) love it! It is simple and delicious. The vinaigrette elevates it to an amazing dish. The only modification I do is that I omit the paprika as it provides little to no taste.

I need this man to read to me before bed

That teeny tiny whisk is too adorable! Must buy one. Oh and the recipe looks delish too!

He gave me "We'll leave the light on for ya" Vibes🥰🥰🥰

Hi, I made your tuna!!! My hubby and son RAVED about it, and I LOVED it. You helped add something new to our weekly meals! Can't thank you enough....I'm checking out your other VIDEO'S, so I can add something new! Can't wait🥰👏🍹

This is the best seared tuna recipe. I’ve tried a couple other recipes and this one always came out so good. 👍

The vinagrette absolutely makes this dish. I'd suggest adding some sesame seeds into the crust as well as searing about 20 seconds a side on medium high rather than 10. It's so easy to make. Well done.

YUMmmm!!! add Sushi rice. Garnished with shredded cucumbers-carrots-coleslaw, green onions, cilantro, and toasted crushed peanuts & VOILA! A fresh comfort and kick to it😋

I've already done this recipe once and I came back to get the Wasabi Vinaigrette down. As much as the tuna is the star, the Vinaigrette takes it to the next level and is essential.

MUST READ: - his exact ingredients and recipe are on his website in the description - MAKE SURE to use KOSHER salt, no other type. If you only have sea salt or table salt, cut the amount of salt in half - black pepper in this amount can be spicy for some, so either use less or a different type of pepper - with less salt and pepper, if you still want an even coverage of the fish, add some black and white sesame seeds to the rub - you can replace the wasabi paste with mustard, although it does change the flavor a bit (good for kids who can’t eat spicy at all) - if you would like it cooked any more than what you see in the video, only do about 18 seconds on each side, no more than 25 or it’s a different meal. The ingredients were meant for this style of sear, red inside is GOOD! - this meal goes great with a veggie source; salad, sautéed veggies, whatever - the dip balances the rub. DONT be afraid to soak your bite.. it’s delicious - sensitive fire alarms will go off, just turn your oven fan on and pray for the best - don’t forget to dry the fish and rub it with olive oil (bonus points if you use lemon infused...) - garlic in the sauce is good if you’re a garlic junkie like me... proceed with caution - IMPORTANT: if you don’t like how it turned out, try to make mental notes of how you prepared it and what tasted good or bad about it to you. This is so that you can improve on your prep, cook, ingredients and technique later. I found black pepper was too spicy so I subbed in some peppercorn medley. I liked some garlic mustard instead of wasabi paste, I didn’t use only KOSHER salt the first time, I didn’t rub the fish well, I like my seared a bit longer, etc. DONT GIVE UP!! This is an incredibly good meal for macro and micro nutrients as well as super tasty and not that expensive (especially for fish). I believe in you and I hope you enjoy your meal :))

Tuna done right is the like wagyu. So soft, so delicate. And the taste.... it’s to die for.

I'm Tom Bodett for PMGK and we'll leave the pan on for you

Omg he is the Bob Ross of cooking! 😂I love it!

I’m definitely making that dressing regardless of weather or not I ever make the tuna.

Absolutely the best seared ahi tuna seared recipe!! Thank you!

If it was possible to give you a hundred likes on this video I would. I was SO hesitant doing this my 1st time. You're video clearly showed how easy it is and they were amazing. I've made this several times since and now make sure I make extra to share with friend so they too can enjoy this. Thank You Much!

Thanks, tried this with Yellow fin, used less pepper and *lots* of wasbi. Seared 20 seconds each side. To die for :) Great with Jasmine rice.

Just cooked this, came out awesome, the black pepper added the perfect kick for me, great recipe!

Dude i get the ahí tuna all the time at outback it’s always so good and I always want it now I can make it at home

Thanks. Never knew that about kosher salt. Definitely learn something from your comment thank you very much.

I made this yesterday it was amazing! So amazing that I made it again today LOL. So glad I found you!

Poor Man's Gourmet Kitchen, thank you for this video. I have made this 3 times. It is sooo good. Can't wait to impress my friends.

Made this a few years ago now I’m back this time since this recipe is my go to. 💕

I did this recipe although I cooked the tuna a little longer. It was bangin. That sauce was fiya!

This is seriously one of my fave quick dishes. Thank you!

That is the most perfectly seared ahi I’ve seen in my life.

Loved your recipe. Stour voice is so soothing.

did it last night!!! loved it and my hubby loved it sooooo much!

Excellent---I did add a dab of Wasabi paste to the plate. Shared some with neighbors and they said if I would do this once a week they would pay.

Looks so easy to follow. Thanks for sharing your recipe!!

So simple, and just as good as the restaurant

It looks beautiful. I wonder why you sear it so quickly and leave so much of it raw? A lot of chefs have a sear of about an 8th of an inch/6mm-ish. Yours is practically raw. I like the dip as well. Lovely.

Once I saw this ... instant subscriber!

I was looking for recipes on how to cook this. Of course you would have the recipe that I can actually follow and have the ingredients of!

Thanks for this video! Informative even how to cut and plate.

The micro whisk was my favorite part

Making this in 2021 sir and my husband and I say thank you! Delicious.

Such a nice video and recipe. I love it.

Amazing, I made it and it tastes delicious. I also love how you take your time to explain everything. Just would love to have exact measurements.

Your detailing is adorable. Thank you!

Amazing recipe turned out delicious..and yes he should do a video reading books ...voice so soothing and relaxing

Awesomeness yes awesomeness...

wow..! never thought it can be so easy, my boss just came back from fishing and gave me this huge piece of fresh ahi and don't know what to do with it.. ha ha ha ha... well.. now I know :) Thank you so much for sharing looks delish..!!

Right to the point - No extra chit chat - Great Vid!

I felt I needed to add cooking spray to the pan. Also I would mention not to add to much salt and add black sesame seed to the dry rub. My fist attempt did not look as good as yours but was very tasty. Thanks

that's probably the best recipe video ever, oh and the fish is, you know.

My mouth is watering looks delicious!

I loved this video. Just loved it!

To the point no messing around 👍 subscribed 😊

I LOVE LOVE LOVE this. I made it so many times, and it was just amazing. Thank you so much

Awesome simple recipe. Thank you for posting this

Oh wow I just made this and it was delicious. Thanks for sharing.

This looks so delicious!! I cannot wait to try it! Thanks for sharing!

I eat this with raw peppers and cucumbers dipped in lite ranch everyday. Works good for working out with it.

I'm gonna try this one day. Awesome!

Thank you for nice recipe, I actually started drooling.. mmm mmm 😋

Yummy, that's perfect! Thank you.👍✌️

Hi Poor Man, yesterday I prepared this delicious plate, but something was wrong. Might be I didn't understand how to put the Kosher salt, Pepper and Paprika. I rubbed the tuna with this mix, before the sesames seeds. I cooked 8 seconds per side. But it remained very salty. I know what was wrong. The vinaigrette was delicious. Thx you very much. I felt in love with your tiny whisk :) Hug

I made this today for the first time. I thought the dipping sauce needed a tad more honey and the rub was a bit salty. Better to go less salt and add it later at the table. Maybe 25% less on the rub. Yes, I did use Kosher salt. I added a bit more honey to the dipping sauce. I opted to seer the meat for 15 seconds and it was just right. I thought just a smear of oil on the pan would help. Nope. Smoke city. My wife and I liked it.

Great recipe. Just made it. Perfect. Thanks

I a so happy that i found you this is THE BEST SEARED TUNA EVER Thanks

I just got really good results from KROGER'S steaks ... at our Kroger they just pull them out and put them in the deli container anyway. I think the frozen and thawed steaks were very good ... and cooked to the same level. I had always made myself look for sushi grade and I saw a batch on special so we got 3 small steaks which made 2 6oz portions ..... SO NOW I AM NOT SCARED TO USE THE FROZEN STEAKS ... Great tutorial by the way ...

Looks delish!

I've been looking for a video like this! Also, your voice sounds similar to the narrator for the Homeward Bound Incredible Journey movies.

Holy shit I just made this and I’m in love it was so good

We are about to try this right now. I usually use Black sesame seeds but we are out at the moment, this looks yummy too. Off to the kitchen we go, thanks again PMGK~

made this tonight. Excellent Job!

I tried this in outback restaurant taste great

Nice! I'm Tom Bodett and "We'll leave the light on for you"🤷🏻😂

This looks so delicious!!!Very nice recipe and presentation! Thank you 🌹

Simple and to the point...great job! Thx

That Mini whisk😍😍🤣🤣🤣 just good cute!!

I really like the video and the recipe is delicious. I use yellow fin tuna and could a bit longer since it is not sushi-grade. I've made a few times, but I neglected to cover the fish with olive oil first, used a mix of sea salt and kosher salt, and I made sure every inch of the fish was covered in the dry rub. It made for an amazing meal, but too peppery and salty. I am going to make the appropriate adjustments the next time Thanks so much.

Best video on pan searing. Thanks.

Perfect sauce paired with a great seasoning mix. I used smoked paprika (in place of cayenne/red) and it was glorious. Thank you for this recipe!

I like that micro whisk! 👍🏻🤙🏼

That tiny wisk thou 😄😍

Perfect and easy thanks

I made it and it was great! I will definitely be making this again. Thanks!

Just did this for yellowfin tuna. Seared it a little bit longer for a medium. Thanks

Instant sub. Looks amazing. Thanks for the recipe!

This sounds as good as all your other recipes. I have just one question. Is it because you sear for such a short time that the pepper does not burn and become bitter?

We made the ahi tuna the exact same way you did! It was amazing! Next time we will put less pepper because it was a little too spicy. Amazing recipe though! Also I was wondering, did the tuna come out a little more pink than red for you? Since I really can't tell by the video.

Can I substitute the sesame oil for toasted sesame oil?

That tiny whisk has me weeeeeeaaaaakkkkkk

I don't know if this man just made love or tuna or both lol

Trying !! And the clam one I’m doing later

I did this and it was AWESOME thanksssss

You rock! I love all your recipes!

I never understood the whole thing until I had some ahi tuna at a Bears game. I thought what's the big deal about tuna? It's fucking tuna! Then I actually ate a piece, and it has changed my life! About the most delicious thing I ever put in my mouth.

He would have been a star on PBS

Making this for dinner. Looks great!

I'm in my freezer looking for an errant pint of B&J ice cream and stumble onto a package of this Tuna. I needed an idea of how it's prepared..

Delicious recipe ❤️ Thank you!

It was delicious !!!!! Omg ! Didn’t even need the dressing

That whisk cracks me up 😂

Thank you for posting this video

Thanks

Hello , Can you please let me know if this Ahi Tuna from Aldi's is ok to eat completely raw as a poke bowl ? I need to know if it's 100% ok to eat without searing first ? I wanna make shashimi and bought the ahi tuna selection from Aldi's supermarket
