I just made yellowfin steaks, marinated in blood orange juice, rice vinegar, & soy sauce. Pat with canola, crust with sesame seeds, cook in pan (pre-heated in 500 degree oven) over high heat on stove 2.5 minutes per side. Serve with wilted spinach & grilled cherry tomato halves and sushi rice. Dipping sauce on the side: soy, sugar, lemon juice & sliced scallions. Also good with hot chinese mustard. It's incredibly good.
