Ingredients

5 oz Ahi Tuna Loin, sushi-grade
2 tbsp Kikkoman Poke Sauce
1 tbsp White Sesame Seeds
1 tbsp Black Sesame Seeds
4 oz Mixed Greens
1 oz Red Onion, sliced 2” x 1/2”
1/2 oz Radish, slice 3/16”
1/2 oz Carrots, sliced 3/16”

Directions

In a flat, shallow dish, marinate tuna in Kikkoman Poke Sauce. Cover and let tuna sit, in refrigerator, for up to 2 hours, turning tuna periodically.

Remove tuna from pan and immediately roll in combined sesame seeds until tuna loin is well coated on all sides. Let tuna rest for 5 minutes, then slice into 1/2” slices.
Combine Poke Soy Vinaigrette ingredients in bowl, whisk until well combined and set aside.
Combine salad greens, vegetables, orange segments and salad dressing (reserve 1 tsp) in large bowl and mix well with tongs.
