For the Seared Ahi:

Sear each side for approximately 2 minutes per side. Ahi should be served rare, you want a very rare center with seared sides. Remove from pan and set aside to rest for a couple of minutes. Cut against the grain into approximately ½ inch strips. Serve with wasabi cream drizzled over the top or on the side.
