    Amazing - easy to make dish !!! Pairs well with Sauvignon Blanc or Pinot Noir.

    Ingredients

    • 1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro leaves
    • 2 jalapeño chiles, seeded, de-ribbed, minced (if very hot, use only 1 chile)
    • 4 teaspoons grated fresh ginger
    • 4 garlic cloves, minced
    • Juice from 4 limes
    • 1/3 cup soy sauce (use wheat-free soy sauce if you need to avoid gluten or wheat)
    • 1/4 teaspoon sugar
    • Salt and freshly ground black pepper
    • 1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
    • 4 (6 ounce) blocks sashimi-quality tuna
    • Salt and pepper
    • 2 ripe avocados, halved, pitted, peeled and sliced

    Directions

    1. 1 In a mixing bowl, combine the cilantro, jalapeno, ginger, garlic, lime juice, soy sauce, sugar, salt, pepper, and 1/4 cup of olive oil.
    2. 2 Place a large skillet over medium-high heat and coat with the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Sprinkle the tuna pieces with salt and pepper. Sear the tuna for a minute on each side. Pour half of the cilantro mixture into the pan to coat the fish.
    3. 3 Transfer the seared tuna to plates and serve with the sliced avocado and the remaining cilantro sauce drizzled over the whole plate.
