What it is
Lightly seared yellowfin tuna fillet with a crunchy sesame seed crust, served alongside a vibrant mix of steamed Asian greens (such as bok choy and gai lan) and a zesty, house-made sugar-free Asian dressing.
Key ingredients
Yellowfin tuna fillet, sesame seeds (black and white), bok choy, gai lan, spinach, ginger, garlic, tamari (or sugar-free soy sauce), rice vinegar (small amount), erythritol/stevia, sesame oil, olive oil, lemon/lime juice.
How to make it keto
Crucially, ensure the Asian dressing is entirely sugar-free (no honey, brown sugar, or high-fructose corn syrup). Request tamari instead of regular soy sauce for lower carb and gluten-free. Confirm no cornstarch or high-carb thickeners in the dressing.
Watch out for
Sugary Asian dressings (common in restaurants), regular soy sauce (contains wheat and often sugar), cornstarch thickeners in sauce, non-keto marinades.
