Pepper crusted seared ahi tuna with tahini sauce
This recipe is fast and easy, but tastes like you are at a 5 star restaurant. The key, as always, is the freshness of the fish. Look for a nice thick chunk of sushi grade Ahi tuna with a bright deep pink color. Plus, you only need 5 common pantry ingredients: oil, butter, salt, pepper and a hot pepper spice. I love Piment D’espelette (ground from the Espelette pepper which is grown in the Basque region of France), but hot paprika would also do the trick or just a pinch of cayenne.

<br />Serve it just with the seasonings or drizzle a delicious sauce like the Lemon Tahini sauce, which you can also use as a dressing on a green salad or a vegetable side, like steamed green beans or broccoli.
