Begin by prepping the Ahi tuna. Pat it dry with paper towels, and then cut it into 1/2-inch cubes and place them in a mixing bowl.
In a separate small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce (or Tamari), sesame oil, and rice vinegar to create a marinade.
Pour the marinade over the Ahi tuna, gently tossing to ensure every piece is coated. Set aside to let the flavors meld.
Dice the avocado into cubes similar in size to the tuna and remove the seeds from the cucumber before slicing it into thin rounds.
Thinly slice the green onions and set aside.
In a large serving bowl, combine the marinated tuna, avocado, cucumber, and seaweed salad.
Add in the sliced green onions, sesame seeds, and red chili flakes for an extra kick.
Squeeze the juice of one lime over the salad, and lightly season with salt and black pepper to taste.
Toss the salad gently to combine all the ingredients, making sure not to mash the avocado.
Serve immediately, or chill in the refrigerator for up to an hour to enhance the flavors before enjoying.
