Reminded me of the tuna steaks I grilled last night. Even though she likes sushi, my wife likes her tuna steak cooked to medium, while I prefer just a seared outside. I got distracted by the dog (throwing his toy for him to fetch) and cooked them both to just a light pink inside. Stupid dog. I'm going to make him cook dinner tonight to make up for it.
LOL. It was so so good. Marinated overnight in mix of olive oil, squirt of balsamic glaze, garlic, rosemary. The outside was so nice and seared and crusty. Used a Meater to get internal temp to 120 then tented for about 5 minutes.
Since then, I've been really craving that Panera Asian Sesame salad / dressing. We grilled some chicken a few nights ago and had leftovers, plus some romaine, and some sliced honey almonds from TJs. So I found this copycat recipe for the dressing. It is SPOT ON. I have an irrational love of this dressing. (I know you can buy it in grocery stores but nowhere near me carries it.)

I did modify a little because when I "toasted" the sesame oil, it lost its nice sesame flavor. So I subbed more sesame oil for the canola oil at the end. I've made this salad 3x in the last 3 days. I need ideas of what else I can put this dressing on! Maybe marinade for some shrimp or something.
