Bring a pan to a medium-high heat. Add a little bit of olive oil, when it starts to barely smoke add the tuna. Cook about a minute and a half on each side.

Combine the teriyaki and soy sauce and garlic in a pot over medium heat. Let the sauce thicken to a consistancy of your liking. Add the cilantro, green onion, and lime juice, Stir.
