Ahi Tiradito Ingredients

Method

Ahi Tiradito Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ahi Tuna

    Slice the Ahi tuna fillet into thin sashimi-style slices, about 1/4 inch thick. Arrange the slices on a serving plate in a single layer.

  2. 2

    Make the Marinade

    In a mixing bowl, combine the lime juice, soy sauce, and Aji Amarillo paste. Whisk together until well blended.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Vegetables

    Finely slice the red onion and chop the cilantro leaves. Set aside.

  4. 4

    Season the Tuna

    Drizzle the marinade over the sliced Ahi tuna, ensuring that the fish is evenly coated. Add salt and black pepper to taste.

  5. 5

    Garnish

    Sprinkle the sliced red onion and chopped cilantro over the marinated tuna.

  6. 6

    Serve with Avocado

    Slice the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop out the flesh. Cut into slices and arrange them alongside the Ahi tiradito on the serving plate.

  7. 7

    Final Touch

    Let the dish sit for a few minutes to allow the flavors to meld before serving. Enjoy your Ahi tiradito chilled.
