Start by preparing the gluten-free sushi rice. Rinse 2 cups of rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Cook according to the package instructions. Once cooked, fold in 2 tablespoons of rice vinegar and 0.5 teaspoon of sea salt while the rice is still hot. Set aside to cool.
While the rice is cooking, prepare the tuna. Cut 1 pound of sushi-grade ahi tuna into small, bite-sized cubes and place in a medium-sized bowl.
In a small bowl, combine 0.25 cup of gluten-free soy sauce, 1 tablespoon of sesame oil, 1 teaspoon of honey, and 1 tablespoon of fresh lime juice. Whisk until well combined.
Pour the sauce over the cubed tuna, ensuring that all pieces are evenly coated. Cover and refrigerate the tuna for at least 10 minutes to marinate.
Meanwhile, slice 2 stalks of green onions thinly and set aside.
Cut 1 whole avocado in half, remove the pit, and dice the flesh into small cubes.
Slice 0.5 cucumber thinly, removing excess seeds if preferred.
To assemble the poke bowls, divide the cooled sushi rice among 4 bowls. Layer the marinated tuna over the rice.
Arrange the avocado cubes, sliced cucumbers, and 1 cup of seaweed salad next to the tuna in the bowl.
Garnish each bowl with sliced green onions and sprinkle evenly with 1 teaspoon of black sesame seeds.
Serve immediately while fresh to ensure the best flavor and texture.
