Prepare the Ahi Tuna

Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Season the ahi tuna steaks with salt and pepper. Sear the tuna for about 1-2 minutes on each side for a rare finish or longer to your desired doneness. Remove from the skillet and let it rest.

Slice the Tuna

Once the tuna has rested, slice it thinly against the grain.

Assemble the Salad

In a large salad bowl, combine the spring mix, sliced almonds, red onion, and mandarin oranges.

4

Add the Tuna and Toppings

Top the salad with the sliced ahi tuna, wonton strips, and sesame seeds.

5

Dress the Salad

Drizzle the sesame ginger dressing over the salad and toss gently to combine.

6

Serve

Serve immediately as a fresh and healthy meal.
