Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 1 lb Ahi tuna
- 2 tablespoons sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
For Serving
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
- Avocado slices
- Cucumber slices
Instructions
- Dice the Tuna: Dice ahi tuna steaks into 1/4 inch cubes and place them in a medium bowl, ensuring all pieces are uniformly sized for even flavor distribution.
- Prepare the Dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together sesame oil, soy sauce, rice vinegar, and lime juice until well combined, creating a tangy and savory sauce.
- Combine Tuna and Dressing: Pour the prepared sauce over the diced tuna and gently mix to coat all pieces evenly without mashing the fish.
- Garnish and Serve: Sprinkle sesame seeds on top of the tuna mixture and serve immediately with avocado and cucumber slices for added texture and freshness.
Notes
- Use sushi-grade ahi tuna for the best freshness and safety when consuming raw fish.
- Serve immediately after mixing to maintain the texture and flavor of the tuna.
- Optional: Add a touch of finely chopped green onion or a dash of freshly grated ginger for extra flavor.
- This dish is best served cold and can be chilled briefly before serving, but avoid marinating for too long as acid can start to ‘cook’ the fish.
