Tuna & Tomato Salad w/ Ginger Dressing

Ingredients

  1. 1/2 c shredded Napa cabbage
    3 tbsp rice wine or dry sherry
    2 tbsp Thai fish sauce
    1 tbsp finely shredded fresh ginger root
    1 garlic clove, finely chopped
    1/2 small fresh red Thai chili, finely chopped
    2 tsp brown sugar
    2 tbsp lime juice
    14 oz fresh tuna steak
    corn oil for brushing
    4 1/2 oz cherry tomatoes
    fresh mint leaves, coarsely chopped

Directions

1. Place a small pile of shredded Napa cabbage on a large serving plate. Place the rice wine, fish sauce, ginger, garlic, chili, sugar, and 1 tbsp lime juice in a screw-top jar and shake to combine (I just whisked in a bowl).
2. Using a sharp knife, cut the tuna into strips of even thickness. Sprinkle with remaining lime juice.
3. Brush a wide skillet or ridged grill pan with oil and heat until very hot. Arrange the tuna strips in the skillet and cook until just firm and light golden, turning them over once. Remove the tuna strips from the skillet and reserve.
4. Add the tomatoes to the skillet and cook over high heat until lightly browned. Spoon the tuna and tomatoes over the Napa cabbage, then spoon over the dressing. Garnish with fresh mint and serve warm.
