1
Prepare the Tuna
Using a sharp knife, finely dice the fresh sushi-grade tuna into small cubes, roughly 1/2 inch in size. Place the diced tuna in a medium mixing bowl.
2
Prepare the Avocado
Cut the ripe avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh out with a spoon. Dice the avocado into similar-sized cubes as the tuna. Add to the mixing bowl with the tuna.
3
Make the Dressing
In a small bowl, whisk together the sesame oil, soy sauce, lime juice, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
4
Combine Ingredients
Pour the dressing over the diced tuna and avocado. Gently fold the ingredients together with a spatula to ensure the tuna and avocado are well coated without mashing the avocado.
5
Add Green Onions and Sesame Seeds
Finely chop the green onions and add them to the bowl along with the sesame seeds. Gently mix again to combine all ingredients.

6
Plate the Tartare
Using a ring mold or by hand, carefully plate the tuna tartare mixture on a serving plate. You can also serve it in a small bowl or on a bed of lettuce for presentation.
7
Garnish
Garnish with additional sesame seeds and thinly sliced green onions on top. Serve immediately with tortilla chips, crackers, or cucumber slices.
