Ingredients
- 200 g Fresh tuna steak
- 2 tbsp Mayonnaise (sugar-free, keto-friendly)
- 1 tsp Sriracha (sugar-free)
- 1 tsp Soy sauce (or coconut aminos for stricter keto)
- 1 whole Avocado
- 0.5 whole Cucumber
- 1 stalk Green onion
- 1 tsp Sesame oil
- 1 tsp Lime juice
- 0.5 tsp Chili flakes
- 1 tsp Sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)
- 1 sheet Seaweed sheets (optional, for serving)
- 0.25 tsp Salt
- 0.25 tsp Black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Pat the tuna steak dry and season both sides with a pinch of salt and black pepper.
Step 2
Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and add sesame oil. Sear the tuna steak for 1-2 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or adjust to your desired doneness. Remove from skillet and let it rest for a few minutes before dicing into small cubes.
Step 3
In a small bowl, mix the mayonnaise, sriracha, soy sauce, lime juice, and chili flakes to create a spicy mayo sauce. Adjust sriracha to your spice preference.
Step 4
Slice the avocado in half, remove the pit, and cube the flesh. Slice the cucumber into thin half-moons. Chop the green onion into fine pieces.
Step 5
In a mixing bowl, combine the diced tuna, avocado cubes, cucumber, and green onion. Drizzle the spicy mayo sauce over the ingredients and gently toss to coat evenly.
Step 6
Serve the keto spicy tuna in a bowl, sprinkle with sesame seeds for garnish, and serve with a side of seaweed sheets (if using) for scooping. Enjoy immediately!
