Recreating a favorite sushi order, this dish features seared ahi tuna served on a mixed green sesame ginger salad, topped with crispy onions. It's simple yet packed with flavor, making it a perfect weekday dinner idea.
1: Add tuna to a large bowl or tupperware and pour over ponzu sauce. Allow fish to marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to an hour, flipping midway if necessary.
2: To make the dressing, combine ginger, garlic, sesame oil, soy sauce, rice vinegar, honey, and sesame seeds in a small bowl and whisk well to combine.
3: To make crispy onions, heat two inches of avocado oil in a deep skillet over medium-high heat. Add shallots and fry until golden brown. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate and season with salt.
4: Discard most of the oil from the pan and return to medium-high heat with a little oil left. Sear the tuna for 1-2 minutes on each side until a light char appears.
5: Remove the tuna from the heat and slice against the grain.
6: Add lettuce to a large bowl and toss with dressing. Transfer to a serving dish, then top with seared ahi and crispy onions.
