Alright, I have been planning a little meal in my head for a week or so. I just got some new Stainless Steel pans and wanted to give them a workout so the outcome was Really good and it was a pretty simple meal.
I cook for myself so this was for one person. I think that it would be easy to increase the amounts for more people.
I started off by getting some white rice going in a pan. It is the part of the meal that takes the longest amount of time so it got started first.
Next I pour some sesame seeds into a skillet and set it on medium heat. I added some salt and pepper into it even though I could have done that after they were toasted. Be careful with the sesame seeds as they will toast up faster then you realize.
In a small sauce pan I put about about 4Tbl of Teriyaki sauce, the juice from a small can of pineapple rings ( I ate the rings.) I diced up some fresh ginger root and added it in and then finely chopped some fresh chives and some cayanne pepper (to taste) put all of it on to reduce until is is reduced by about half.
Next I cut a nice size hunk of Shaseme Grade Tuna. I spread the sesame seeds out on a plate and pressed both sides into them. This gave me a nice even crust on seeds on each side of the tuna steak.
In my large skillet, I poured some olive oil in the pan and let it get hot. Then, set the timer on the oven for 4 minutes. I hit start and set the tuna steak in the pan. 2 minutes later, I flipped it. The sesame seeds were a nice golden crust. 2 more mins and out of the pan. I like tuna pretty rare so that is my time schedule for it.
Finally I laid down a bed of rice. Placed the tuna steak on it and drizzled the still warm teriyaki glaze over the entire thing.
It was excellent. I don't know exact measurements because I don't use them.
Let me know if you try it. It is a gourmet 30 minute meal easy.

I like your inclusion of pineapple juice, what a neat spin I'll have to remember that one, thanks Kingfisherfd2.
