Ahi Tuna on a bed of greens

'Tis the weekend which means that we go to Costco.  For those who do not know what Costco is, it is a wholesale big box store.  Today we found that they had ahi tuna.  Tim and I really enjoy ahi tuna and so we thought we would give Costco's a try.

Ingredients
2 ahi tuna steaks about 1 lb
1 tsp garlic
1 tsp minced ginger
1 tablespoon Soy sauce
1 tablespoon sesame oil
wasabi powder to taste


While your grill or skillet pan is heating, mix all marinade ingredients and let  the tuna steaks sit in the sauce until the grill/skillet is ready.  So here is the catch...it is up to you how long you grill the Tuna steaks.  If you have sushi grade tuna you can do a quick sear on each side and call it done.  For those of you who like your Tuna a little more cooked I would say 3 to 5 minutes on each side so that there is still a little pink in the middle.  You can cook it all the way through if that is what you like.

We served over a bed of lettuce that had some sesame ginger dressing and toasted sesame seeds and pine nuts.
