Method

Preparation

Prepare the Pickled Asian Slaw

In a large bowl, combine the shredded cabbage and carrot. In a separate bowl, whisk together the rice vinegar, sugar, salt, and sesame oil until the sugar dissolves. Pour the mixture over the cabbage and carrot, mixing well. Let it sit for at least 30 minutes to pickle.

Make the Wasabi Aioli

In a small bowl, combine the mayonnaise, wasabi paste, lemon juice, and minced garlic. Mix well until smooth and set aside.

Cook the Ahi Tuna

Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Season both sides of the ahi tuna steaks with salt and black pepper. Sear the tuna for about 2-3 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or longer if desired. Remove from heat.
