Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound fresh ahi tuna
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 3 tablespoons coconut aminos
- 0.5 medium sweet onion
- 2 stalks green onions
- 0.5 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.25 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 0.5 cup seaweed (wakame or ogo)
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
- 1 small cucumber
- 1 medium avocado
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
- 4 cups mixed salad greens
Instructions
Start by preparing your ahi tuna. Rinse it under cold water and pat it dry with paper towels. Cut the tuna into 1/2-inch cubes and set aside in a large bowl.
In a small bowl, mix together the sesame oil, coconut aminos, and lime juice to create a marinade.
Thinly slice the sweet onion and chop the green onions, then add them to the bowl with the tuna.
Add the sea salt, red pepper flakes, and the seaweed to the tuna mixture.
Pour the marinade over the tuna mixture and gently toss to combine. Allow it to marinate for about 10 minutes while preparing other ingredients.
Meanwhile, peel and dice the cucumber into small cubes, and slice the avocado. Set aside.
To assemble the salad, place a bed of mixed salad greens on each serving plate.
Spoon the marinated tuna poke over the salad greens and top with cucumber and avocado slices.
Sprinkle sesame seeds evenly over each plate for a bit of extra crunch.
Serve immediately and enjoy your flavorful, soy-free ahi poke salad!
