1
Prepare the Tuna
Using a sharp knife, dice the fresh Ahi tuna into small, uniform cubes, about 1/2 inch in size. Place the diced tuna in a bowl.
2
Make the Dressing
In a separate bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, sesame oil, lime juice, and a pinch of salt and black pepper. Stir in the sesame seeds.
3
Combine Ingredients
Pour the dressing over the diced tuna and gently mix to combine. Be careful not to mash the tuna.
4
Prepare the Avocado
Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh out with a spoon. Dice the avocado into cubes and set aside.
5
Chop the Green Onions
Finely chop the green onions and add them to the tuna mixture. Mix gently to combine.

6
Plate the Dish
On a serving plate, create a small mound of the tuna tartare mixture in the center. Arrange the diced avocado around the tuna tartare.
7
Garnish and Serve
Optionally, sprinkle additional sesame seeds on top of the tartare for garnish. Serve immediately with chips or as is, enjoying the fresh flavors.
