Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 226 grams sushi-grade ahi tuna
- 2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 1 teaspoon Sriracha sauce
- 2 stalks green onion
- 1 teaspoon sesame seeds
- 0.25 teaspoon red chili flakes
- 0.5 medium cucumber
- 0.5 medium avocado
Instructions
Ensure you are working with sushi-grade ahi tuna. Dice the tuna into small, evenly sized cubes, around 1/2 inch in size. Place them in a mixing bowl.
In a small dish, whisk together the low-sodium soy sauce, fresh lime juice, sesame oil, and Sriracha sauce to create a light yet flavorful marinade.
Pour the marinade over the diced tuna and gently toss until all pieces are evenly coated. Set aside to marinate for 5-10 minutes while you prep the other ingredients.
Thinly slice the green onions. Toast the sesame seeds in a dry skillet over low heat for 1-2 minutes, if desired, to enhance their nuttiness.
Peel the cucumber and cut it into small cubes. Dice the avocado as well, ensuring the pieces are similar in size to the tuna for easy bites.
Gently fold the green onions, toasted sesame seeds, red chili flakes, cucumber, and avocado into the marinated tuna mixture. Be careful not to mash the avocado.
Serve the low-fat spicy ahi poke immediately in small bowls or over a bed of greens for a light meal. Enjoy it as is, or pair it with a small portion of steamed brown rice for added heartiness.
