Black and Blue Tuna With Wasabi Sauce

"If you like a good piece of tuna and you like wasabi, you are in for a real treat! Buy sushi-grade tuna so you don't have to cook the heck out of the fish. Tuna is best served when the middle is room temp. However, even if you like your fish charbroiled, you will love the wasabi sauce with it!"
