A delightful and quick recipe for pan-seared tuna, enhanced with a tangy wasabi lemon butter sauce.
Season the tuna steaks with salt and freshly ground black pepper on both sides.
Seasoning the tuna just before cooking helps retain its natural juices.
Heat a frying pan over high heat until hot, then add a small amount of oil.
Ensure the pan is hot enough to sear the tuna quickly, locking in the flavor.
Place the tuna steaks in the pan and sear for 2 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or longer if desired.
Avoid overcrowding the pan to ensure even cooking.
In a small saucepan, melt the butter over low heat.
Use low heat to prevent the butter from burning.
Stir in the soy sauce, wasabi paste, and lemon juice until well combined.
Adjust the amount of wasabi to suit your taste preference.
Drizzle the wasabi lemon butter sauce over the seared tuna steaks.
Serve the sauce warm for the best flavor.
Garnish with chopped green onions and serve immediately.
Adding fresh green onions enhances the dish's presentation and flavor.
