Method

For the Tuna Sliders

  1. 1

    Prepare the Tuna

    Using a sharp knife, slice the tuna into evenly sized pieces to ensure even cooking.

  2. 2

    Sear the Tuna

    Add the tuna portions to the skillet and season with salt and black pepper. Sear each side for about 1-2 minutes for medium-rare, depending on thickness.

  3. 3

    Rest the Tuna

    Allowing the tuna to rest will help retain its juices.

  4. 4

    Slice the Tuna

    Cut the tuna slices against the grain for optimal tenderness.

For the Tropical Fruit Salsa

  1. 5

    Mix the Salsa

    Stir gently to combine all the ingredients evenly.

  2. 6

    Season the Salsa

    Toss the salsa again to ensure all ingredients are coated with lime juice and seasoned to taste.

For the Spicy Aji Amarillo Mayo

  1. 7

    Prepare the Mayo

    Whisk until the mixture is smooth and well combined. Adjust salt to taste.

Assembling the Sliders

  1. 8

    Toast the Buns

    This adds texture and flavor to the sliders.

  2. 9

    Spread the Mayo

    Ensure even coverage to enhance flavor.

  3. 10

    Add the Tuna

    Place the tuna slices carefully to avoid breaking them.

  4. 11

    The salsa adds freshness and a burst of flavor.
