Ingredients

3/4 - 1 pound sashimi-grade ahi tuna steak (large)
1/4 cup sesame seeds
1 cup fresh pico de gallo
1 ripe mango
1 ripe avocado
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon honey
1 teaspoon wasabi paste
1 cup fine shredded cabbage slaw
12 ounce package square wonton wrappers
2 quarts fry oil

Steps:

Pour the oil in a large stock pot and heat over medium to 350 degrees F. Cut the wonton wrappers in half to make triangles. Once the oil is hot, gently drop 4-6 at a time into the oil and dunk. Fry them for 1-2 minutes until golden, then remove with tongs and place on a paper towel lined platter or bowl. Sprinkle with salt and repeat with the remaining wrappers. *If the wontons turn dark immediately, the oil is too hot. Lower the heat and wait a few minutes, then start again.
Meanwhile, peel and dice the mango. Mix the diced mango into the pico de gallo for a fresh quick salsa. Add a little Sriracha or hot sauce if desired. Then whisk the mayo, honey and wasabi together. Salt to taste. Peel and slice the avocado.
Once the other components are ready, heat a skillet to high heat. Cut the ahi steak in half lengthwise to create two thin steaks. Season both with salt and pepper, then pour the sesame seeds out on the plate and press both sides of each steak into the sesame seeds. Once the skillet is hot, sear the ahi steaks for approximately 1 minute per side, for the exterior is crusty, but the inside is still raw. Cut the ahi steaks into small cubes.
To serve: Pile the wonton chips on a large plate or platter. Top with the shredded cabbage. Then sprinkle on the mango pico de gallo, followed by the ahi tuna cubes and avocado slices. Scoop the wasabi mayo into a squirt bottle and squirt over the ahi wonton nachos. Enjoy!

Number Of Ingredients 5

Ingredients

1 pound sashimi grade yellowfin tuna
kosher salt to taste
fresh ground black pepper to taste
½ cup Italian seasoned bread crumbs
3 tablespoons olive oil

Steps:

With a sharp knife, cut the tuna into 4 large pieces for appetizer portion, 2 large pieces for dinner portion. Use your judgment on what shape you want to cut your tuna because not all tuna is the same size or shape. However, the shape should somewhat resemble a miniature brick.
Season the tuna pieces with salt and pepper. Coat lightly on all sides with bread crumbs. Heat olive oil in a large heavy skillet over high heat. The pan should be as hot as you can get it. Place the tuna in the pan, and sear on each side for about 45 seconds for small portions, or 1 minute for large. Remove from pan. The tuna will be very rare.
Slice each 'brick' into 1/4 inch thick slices, and fan out on a serving plate. Enjoy plain, or with the condiments of your choice.

Tips:

Use fresh, high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your nachos.
Don't overcrowd the nachos. You want to make sure that each chip has a chance to get crispy and that the toppings are evenly distributed.
Don't overcook the ahi tuna. Tuna is a delicate fish, so it's important to cook it quickly over high heat. Otherwise, it will become tough and dry.
Use a variety of toppings. The more toppings you use, the more flavor and texture your nachos will have. Some good options include avocado, salsa, sour cream, cheese, and jalapeños.
Serve the nachos immediately. Nachos are best when they're hot and crispy. So, don't let them sit around for too long before serving.

Conclusion:

Hannah's Exotic Ahi Tuna Nachos are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or snack. They're perfect for parties or game day gatherings. With their combination of fresh ahi tuna, creamy avocado, and spicy jalapeños, these nachos are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
