How to Make Seared Tuna In Wasabi Sauce
- In a small saucepan, combine white wine, lime juice, red onion, ginger, and garlic. Bring to a simmer over medium heat.
- Reduce the mixture until it thickens to about 2 tablespoons, about 5-7 minutes.
- Transfer the reduced sauce to a blender. Add butter, soy sauce, and wasabi paste. Blend until smooth and the butter is melted.
- Pour the sauce into a bowl and stir in the cilantro.
- Preheat your grill to high heat. It should be very hot!
- In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil and 1 tablespoon of the wasabi sauce.
- Brush both sides of the tuna steaks with the olive oil and sauce mixture.
- Grill the tuna for 90 seconds per side for a seared exterior with a rare center.
- For a more well-done tuna, continue grilling for an additional 1 minute per side.
- Remove the tuna from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes before serving.
- Top the tuna steaks generously with the remaining wasabi sauce and serve immediately.
