Ingredients
8 oz soba noodles
1 cup frozen shelled edamame, thawed
4 Tbs low-sodium soy sauce, divided
2 Tbs sesame oil, divided
2 Tbs white sesame seeds
1 Tbs black sesame seeds
1 tsp salt
1 tsp coarsely ground black pepper
1 lb ahi tuna
3 Tbs vegetable oil, divided
3 Tbs tahini
3 Tbs vegetable broth
2 Tbs rice vinegar
2 Tbs honey
1 Tbs Sriracha sauce
2 tsp fresh ginger, grated
5 cloves garlic, minced

  1. Cook the noodles according to package instructions. Add the edamame in the last minute of cooking. Drain, and rinse with cold water. Transfer to a large bowl. Toss with 1 tablespoon each of soy sauce and sesame oil. Set aside.
  2. On a plate, combine the white and black sesame seeds with salt and pepper. Press the tuna into sesame mixture to completely coat. Heat a large skillet over high heat.
