Seared Tuna Over Warm Cole Slaw

First planned off night in almost four weeks from baseball!  In addition to making stock, I also made dinner.  One of my favorites seared tuna and I used the napa cabbage, purple carrots and sweet onions to cook up a quick, warm slaw.

Tuna Steaks
Sesame Vinaigrette (see recipe in Seared Tuna over Arugula Salad post)
Peanut Oil
Napa Cabbage, shredded
Purple Carrots, sliced thin
Sweet Onions, sliced thin
1/2 Lemon, juiced

Marinate tuna in sesame vinaigrette for 20 minutes, flipping half way through.  Sear tuna in oil over high heat for 2 minutes per side.  Remove tuna to a plate and let rest.  Lower heat to medium and in same pan, add onions to saute for 2-3 minutes.  Add carrots and cook for 2 minutes before adding cabbage and a couple of tablespoons of sesame vinaigrette and the lemon juice.  Once cabbage has wilted remove from heat. 

I flaked the tuna with my fingers and place over the cole slaw.  You could slice it on the bias but I find the flaked tuna a little more casual and comforting.
