Seared tuna, rice, broccoli, nuoc cham. 6/14/25

Seared tuna, rice, broccoli, and nuoc cham

For dinner on Saturday we had very affordable but delicious pieces of tuna. The frozen 10 oz. pieces were on sale for $3.99! John marinated them in soy sauce, ginger and garlic powders, and Old Bay. After a short marination he rubbed on a little sesame oil and patted on white and black sesame seeds. The searing was done in a hot cast iron pan for two and a half minutes per side. Perfect.

I reheated some previously cooked rice and cooked the broccoli in a little sesame oil until it was crunchy. As a sauce I made Vietnamese nuoc cham using the following recipe and tweaking it to our taste. This was a company grade dinner.
