1
Prepare the Ingredients
Gather all ingredients and prepare the mixed vegetables by chopping them into small pieces. Peel and slice the plantains.
2
Cook the Plantains
In a skillet, heat some oil over medium heat. Fry the sliced plantains until they are golden brown on both sides. Remove and set aside.
3
Cook the Tuna
Season the yellowfin tuna steaks with salt, pepper, and your choice of jerk seasoning. In a grill pan or skillet over medium-high heat, sear the tuna for about 2-3 minutes on each side for medium-rare. Adjust cooking time for preferred doneness.
4
Sauté the Spinach and Vegetables
In the same pan, add a little more oil if needed and sauté the mixed vegetables until tender. Add the spinach and cook until wilted. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
5
Assemble the Dish
On a plate, create a bed of cooked rice and black beans. Place the sautéed spinach and vegetables on one side. Top with the cooked tuna and arrange the fried plantains alongside.
6
Add Toppings
Slice the avocado and place it on the dish. Crumble goat cheese over the tuna and drizzle with seaweed salsa for an added flavor.
