Ahi Tuna Poke Bowl Recipe

Rinse the Sushi Rice

In a fine mesh sieve, rinse 1 cup of sushi rice under cold water until the water runs clear to remove excess starch.

Cook the Rice

Combine the rinsed rice and 1.25 cups of water in a rice cooker or pot. Cook according to the rice cooker instructions or bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 18-20 minutes. Let it sit covered for 10 minutes after cooking.

Fluff the Rice

After resting, fluff the rice with a fork and set aside to cool.

Prepare the Tuna

Cut 8 oz of Ahi tuna into small cubes and place in a mixing bowl.

Mix the Marinade

In a separate bowl, combine 2 tbs of soy sauce, 1 tbs of sesame oil, 2 tbs of finely chopped green onions, 1 tbs of sesame seeds, 1 tsp of sriracha, and 1 tbs of lime juice. Mix well.

Marinate the Tuna

Pour the marinade over the cubed tuna and gently stir to coat. Let it marinate in the refrigerator for 15-20 minutes.

Prepare the Vegetables

Thinly slice 0.5 cups of cucumber and 0.5 cups of radish. Cut 1 whole avocado in half, remove the pit, and slice the flesh.

Assemble the Poke Bowl
