Ingredients:

6 oz. fresh Ahi tuna steaks, about 3/4-inch thick

vegetable oil

sea salt and freshly ground black pepper

Tbsp. cold unsalted butter

green onions, thinly sliced

-2 Tbsp. fresh lime or lemon juice

Tbsp. soy sauce

-2 Tbsp. prepared wasabi

Brush tuna steaks on both sides with the oil and season with salt and pepper.

Combine the butter, onion, lime juice, soy sauce and wasabi in a small pan.

Heat a heavy, nonstick frying pan over high heat. Place the tuna in the pan and sear

until crispy and brown. Turn over and sear the other side. Be careful not to overcook the

tuna. It’s best rare to medium rare. While the tuna is cooking, heat the butter mixture

over low heat, stirring constantly until smooth and emulsified. Serve the tuna

immediately, drenched with the sauce.
