1
Prepare the Wasabi Mayonnaise
In a small bowl, mix the mayonnaise and wasabi until well combined. Adjust wasabi to taste. Set aside.
2
Marinate the Ahi Tuna
In a shallow dish, combine soy sauce and ginger. Place the Ahi tuna steaks in the marinade and let them sit for about 10 minutes.
3
Coat the Tuna
Remove the tuna from the marinade and let excess drip off. Press each steak into the sesame seeds, coating all sides.
4
Sear the Tuna
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Place the sesame-coated tuna steaks in the skillet and sear for about 1-2 minutes on each side, or until the desired doneness is reached.
5
Serve
Remove the tuna from the skillet and let it rest for a minute. Slice the tuna steaks and serve with wasabi mayonnaise, extra wasabi, and pickled ginger on the side.
