Instructions

1

Bring a pot of water to a boil and cook the soba noodles according to package instructions, about 4-5 minutes until al dente. Drain and rinse under cold water to stop cooking.

2

Season the ahi tuna steaks generously with salt and pepper. Heat a heavy-bottomed cast-iron skillet over high heat until smoking hot. Sear the tuna for 60-90 seconds per side until a crust forms, keeping the center rare. Remove from pan and let rest.

3

In the same skillet, add the sliced sweet onions and sauté until translucent and beginning to caramelize, about 5 minutes. Toss in the radicchio and cook for 2 minutes until just wilted. Season with a pinch of sea salt.

4

To assemble, place a bed of soba noodles in a shallow bowl. Top with the warm wilted radicchio and onion mixture. Slice the seared tuna against the grain and arrange over the top.

5

Spoon the wild garlic pesto over the tuna and garnish with toasted sesame seeds for a final crunch. Serve immediately.
