Preparation Steps

1

Prepare the Sweet Chili Remoulade

In a small bowl, mix together the mayonnaise and sweet chili sauce until well combined. Set aside.

2

Spice Rub the Ahi Tuna

Combine the paprika, cumin, garlic powder, salt, and pepper in a small bowl. Rub this spice mixture evenly over both sides of the ahi tuna steaks.

3

Cook the Ahi Tuna

Heat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Add a little oil and sear the ahi tuna steaks for about 1-2 minutes on each side, depending on your desired doneness. Remove from heat and let rest.

4

Prepare the Buns

While the tuna is resting, lightly toast the brioche buns on the grill or in a toaster.

5

Assemble the Sandwich

Spread the sweet chili remoulade on the bottom half of each brioche bun. Place a generous handful of arugula on each bun, followed by the seared ahi tuna, shaved red onion, and pickled ginger. Top with the other half of the bun.

6

Serve

Serve the sandwiches immediately and enjoy!
