Pepper Seared Tuna with Wasabi and Fried Celery Root Chips

Season the loin with Essence. Completely coat the entire tuna loin with the cracked black pepper. In a saute pan, heat the olive oil. When the pan is smoking hot, sear the tuna on each side for 2 minutes for rare. Remove from the pan and slice into 1/4-inch slices. In a small bowl combine the wasabi and water together and blend until smooth. In a mixing bowl toss the avocado, tomatoes, cilantro , and sesame oil together. Season with salt and pepper. To assemble, place one to two slices of the tuna on the celery root chip. Dab a small amount of the wasabi on top of the tuna. Top each chip with the avocado and tomato salad. Garnish with chives, black pepper, and a drizzle of sesame oil.
