Pat the ahi tuna steak completely dry with paper towels to ensure a crisp sear.
In a shallow dish, combine the black sesame seeds, white sesame seeds, sea salt, and black pepper.
Press each side of the tuna steak firmly into the sesame seed mixture until it is evenly coated.
In a small bowl, whisk together the avocado oil mayonnaise and wasabi paste until smooth.
Thinly slice the cucumber and avocado, then toss them in a bowl with the rice vinegar.
Heat the toasted sesame oil in a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Sear the tuna for 60 to 90 seconds per side for a perfect rare center, then let it rest for 2 minutes.
Slice the tuna into thin strips and serve alongside the cucumber salad with a dollop of wasabi mayo.
