Description

Spicy tuna is an easy Asian-style recipe that can be added to salad, meal bowls, sushi, and more. It’s so simple, but SO delicious!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 10 oz raw sushi grade ahi tuna, finely diced
  • 2 tablespoons kewpie japanese mayo
  • 1 tablespoon sriracha
  • 1 teaspoon garlic 
  • 1/2 teaspoon minced ginger
  • 1 teaspoon tamari 
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1 teaspoon rice wine vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon white sesame seeds
  • 1/2 teaspoon black sesame seeds
  • 1/4 cup diced green onion (the green parts)

Instructions

  1.  Using a very sharp knife, cut the tuna into small 1/4″ cubes.
  2. Add the tuna to a medium bowl along with kewpie mayo, sriracha, garlic, ginger, tamari, sesame oil, rice wine vinegar, white sesame seeds, black sesame seeds and green onions. 
  3. Using a spoon, mix all the ingredients until the tuna is fully coated.
  4. Garnish with more sesame seeds or green onion. Serve immediately.

Notes

Pro Tip: Putting the tuna in the freezer for 30 minutes before cutting makes it a lot easier to get precise cuts
