Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Wasabi Slaw

    In a large bowl, combine the shredded cabbage, shredded carrots, mayonnaise, and wasabi paste. Mix well until the slaw is evenly coated. Set aside in the refrigerator to chill.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Tuna

    Brush the yellowfin tuna steaks with olive oil and season with salt and black pepper on both sides. Let them marinate for about 15 minutes.

  3. 3

    Grill the Tuna

    Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Grill the tuna steaks for about 3-4 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until desired doneness is reached.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Sandwiches

    Spread Sriracha sauce on the inside of each bun. Place a grilled tuna steak on each bun, then top with a generous amount of wasabi slaw. Close the sandwiches.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve the South Pacific Tuna sandwiches immediately with extra Sriracha sauce on the side if desired.
