Instructions

1. In a plate, put the egg whites and pass the tuna through them until it is covered on all sides.
2. In another plate, put the sesame seeds and pass the fillet through them, turning it until covered on all sides.
3. Heat a pan with 1 tablespoon of very hot oil to sear the tuna. Leave it for 30-50 seconds on each side (depends on the thickness of your fillet).
4. Remove from heat and let it rest for 5 minutes, then cut it and enjoy 🤤.

Important Tips!

- Let the pan and oil heat up very well before putting the tuna so that it sears and doesn't stick.

- It is very important to let the fillet rest after cooking, this will prevent it from falling apart when you cut it!

- Use a very sharp knife to cut it, so you will get perfect slices 👌🏻.

We accompanied it with patacones, avocado, and sriracha mayonnaise 👩🏻‍🍳🤩🤩.
