Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ahi Tuna

    Season the Ahi tuna fillet with salt and pepper. Heat a grill or non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and sear the tuna for about 1-2 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until desired doneness.

  2. 2

    Grill the Pineapple

    While the tuna is cooking, grill the pineapple chunks on the same grill or in a grill pan for about 2-3 minutes until grill marks appear and they caramelize slightly.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Dish

    On a plate, place the grilled pineapple at the base. Slice the seared Ahi tuna and place it on top of the pineapple. Add sliced jalapeños and avocado on the side.

  4. 4

    Finish with Sauce

    Drizzle ponzu sauce over the tuna and pineapple. Add a squeeze of lemon juice to enhance flavors. Serve with a small dollop of wasabi on the side.
