Yellowfin Tuna Coated with Golden Flaxseed and Fresh Thyme


Flaxseed is best if freshly ground because you get the oils, but you can use flaxseed meal and still get the fiber. I combined this with fresh thyme. Fresh basil might work, and even minced rosemary if you used a swordfish steak. First wash and pat dry your fish, then dip in one lightly beaten small egg, then in your heavily-seasoned flax mixture. Flax can be bland, so I added Hawaiian sea salt, pepper, chili powder, and lots of thyme. Then I fried it up on medium in olive oil.

Believe it or not, the whole thing took less than 15 minutes to make. I'm going to Trader Joe's to buy up their supply of that yellowfin tuna.
