I love this Ahi and have made it several times. It has been a hit with everyone to whom I've served it. I agree with the reviewer who said that 1/4 of the sauce is plenty.

This was simple to make and a real hit. The most important thing is not to over cook the tuna. What worked best for me is to get the skillet hot on medium heat and then put the tuna in the skillet and set the timer for two minutes exactly, flip it and set it again for two minutes then remove. perfect every time.
