Avocado Salad

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Blackened Ahi Tuna

    In a small bowl, mix paprika, cayenne pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, salt, and black pepper to create the spice blend. Rub this spice mixture generously over both sides of the Ahi tuna steaks.

  2. 2

    Cook the Tuna

    Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the seasoned tuna steaks. Sear for about 2-3 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until the desired doneness.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Avocado Salad

    While the tuna is cooking, chop the avocados, halved cherry tomatoes, finely chop the red onion, and cilantro. Combine them in a bowl and toss with lime juice and salt to taste.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Once the tuna is cooked, remove it from the skillet and let it rest for a minute. Slice the tuna and serve it alongside the avocado salad.
