Grilled Tuna Steak Salad

A tasty, quick, easy, and deliciously healthy meal for two! Great for date night or girlfriend for two lunch!  They have wild caught tuna steaks frozen individually in a package of six or so at Whole Foods for $14.99. 

Ingredients

2 pounds very fresh tuna steak, cut 1-inch thick

4 tablespoons olive oil, plus extra for brushing

2 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt, plus extra for sprinkling

1/2 teaspoon coarsely ground black, plus extra for sprinkling

2 limes, zest grated (I would probably cut this down next time)

1 teaspoon wasabi powder

6 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice (3 limes) (I used two limes and it was very limey!  I would not use as much next time)

2 teaspoons gluten free soy sauce (I used a little more)

10 dashes hot sauce (recommended: Tabasco)

1 to 2 ripe Hass avocados, medium diced (I used one for us both)

1/4 cup minced scallions, white and green parts (2 scallions)

1/4 cup red onion, small diced

Directions

Brush the tuna steaks with olive oil, and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place the tuna steaks in a very hot saute pan and cook for only 1 minute on each side. Set aside on a platter.

Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine the olive oil, salt, pepper, lime zest, wasabi, lime juice, soy sauce and hot sauce. Add the avocados to the vinaigrette.

Cut the tuna in chunks and place it in a large bowl. Add the scallions and red onion and mix well. Pour the vinaigrette mixture over the tuna and carefully mix.
