This was the first time I ever had tuna steak, and oh...My...GOD!! Was this awesome!!! This recipe was so easy, so quick, and so delicious, I felt like I was a chef in a five-star restaurant. The way those sesame seeds taste after they are grilled on the tuna is some kind of luxury. Will make this many many times over again. Changes? I did start out with a pre-marinated tuna steak which I bought from Trader Joe's. And I added a little more wasabi powder at the end because as it sat, the flavor of it seemed to subside to me. GREAT RECIPE, Thanks So Much for this!! Oh yeah, next time, might try orange juice in place of the lime. I bet that would work nicely too.

The tuna itself needed a bit more flavor. Without the salsa (which was really yummy), it wouldn't have held up.

This recipe was easy to prepare, the presentation was nice, and it tasted wonderful. CHANGES: I followed another reviewer's advice and added a little bit of onion, garlic, and fresh cilantro to the salsa, but I think it would've been good without it too. I also used a combination of sesame oil and canola oil and sprinkled a little soy sauce on the fish before coating it with sesame seeds. NOTES: I had never cooked tuna steaks before, so I went with the 4 min per side that is stated in the recipe, but it was too long. I think 2 to 2.5 min per side would've been enough. To be fair, its entirely possible that I had the heat up too high. The next time I prepare this (oh yes, there will be a next time), It will be absolutely perfect. Thank you for sharing the recipe!

The summer salsa is the BEST part of this recipe. I've made it since on it's own for tortilla chips and think it would be great with tilapia or shrimp. This was fantastic with a nice semi dry white wine. Fantastic! Make sure your avocado and mango and nice and ripe.

Wow, I impressed my wife with these. Tuna was a little pricey at $7 each but the salsa was wonderful.

Wow! This recipe makes you look like a chef! I cubed my tuna and cooked it in a covered skillet with a little canola oil (I don't have a grill). I also had a little wasabi mayonnaise on the side. It was restaurant quality.

Loved this recipe! Easy, light and refreshing. I of couse had to add some additional things for preference. First I used sesame oil instead of canola. For a better presentation I also used white and black sesame seeds. Lastly salsa isn't salsa to me with out onion, garlic and cilantro so I added some of each. FANTASTIC!

SO good! I didn't use the wasabi powder but I did put lime zest in the salsa and it was fab! Will do it again for sure!

An outstanding recipe. I used a sushi grade of Ahi Tuna and made the recipe exactly as directed. The flavors were very complimentary of one another. This dish presents very well for entertaining. I only regret that I ate it before I took a photo of it, to submit. Thanks for a keeper!!

Absolutely delicious!! I couldn't find wasabe powder, so I just used wasabe paste. My husband tasted the summer salsa without the tuna and didn't like it at all. BUT when served with the tuna, both of us thought it was perfect. I will definitely make this dish again.
