¼ cup

¼ cup 

 

sake

 

2 Tbs

1 Tbs

DISH:

1 Tbs

1 medium

fresh snow peas, trimmed and halved on the diagonal

1 lb

1

To make the sauce, bring the soy sauce, sake, mirin and sugar to a boil in a small saucepan. Cook over medium-high heat until the sauce is thickened and reduced by half (¼ cup), about 5 minutes. Remove the sauce from the heat. Transfer half of the sauce to a bowl; cover and keep warm.

2

Spray broiler pan or grill rack with nonstick spray; preheat broiler or grill.

3

Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Swirl in the oil, then add ginger and garlic. Cook, stirring, until fragrant, less than 1 minute. Add bell peppers, snow peas, and carrots; cook, stirring, until vegetables are tender-crisp, 4 -5 minutes.

4

Meanwhile, broil or grill the tuna 5 inches from heat source, turning occasionally and brushing with half of the sauce, until golden brown and just slightly pink in the center, about 3 minutes on each side.

5

Divide the vegetable mixture among 4 plates. Top each serving with a piece of tuna and drizzle with the remaining sauce. Serve at once.

 

Servings: 4

Yield: Serv. size: 1 piece of tuna w/ 1/2 cup vegetables
