Provided by Valentina K. Wein

Categories     Appetizer     First Course

Time 23m

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 (½-pound) sushi grade Ahi tuna fillet ((see notes))
grapeseed oil for the pan
1 mango ((see notes))
½ large avocado
salt and freshly ground black pepper (see notes)
drizzle of Tamari or soy sauce
about 2 teaspoons chives, (washed and dried, finely chopped)

Steps:

  • Prep ahi. Place the ahi fillet on a clean, dry surface. Lightly sprinkle all of the sides with sea salt, then either sprinkle or grind black pepper directly onto the top and bottom surfaces of the fillets. The pepper should be a thin, but generous layer.
  • Sear ahi. Coat a small sauté pan with grape seed oil and place it over high heat.Once the pan is very hot, add the Ahi and sear each side until it's only cooked through ⅛ to ¼ inch, 1 minute or less per side. (If you don't hear a sizzling sound when the tuna hits the pan, it's not hot enough -- wait for the sizzle!)
  • Slice ahi. Remove the seared tuna from the pan and place it on a clean plate. Once it has cooled completely, cut it into thin, evenly sized slices -- about ¼ inch each. Set aside. (You should have at least 14 slices.)
  • Prep mango and avocado. Cut the mango into halves. Then, slice each half into approximately 14 evenly sized slices, about ¼ inch each. (Here's How to Cut a Mango.)Cut the avocado into halves. Then, horizontally, slice the half into approximately 14 evenly sized slices, about ¼-inch each. (Here's How to Cut an Avocado.)
  • Assemble. Arrange the Ahi, mango, and avocado slices evenly between two appetizer plates -- I like alternating them, but arrange them any way you'd like to. Drizzle with a bit of Tamari or soy sauce, and sprinkle with the chives.
  • Serve. Serve immediately, or cover the plates with plastic wrap, drizzle the avocados with a bit of lemon juice, and refrigerate them until you're ready. (Up to an hour or so.)

MANGO SALSA-STUFFED AVOCADO RECIPE BY TASTY



Mango Salsa-stuffed Avocado Recipe by Tasty image

Here's what you need: ripe avocado, oil, mango, red onion, jalapeño, fresh cilantro, fresh lime juice, salt

Provided by Joey Firoben

Categories     Appetizers

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 ripe avocado
oil, for brushing
1 mango, peeled and diced
¼ red onion, finely diced
1 jalapeño, deseeded and finely diced
2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, minced
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
salt, to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat gas grill on high heat.
  • Using a sharp knife, slice the avocados in half by cutting in a straight line around the pit.
  • Place the avocado half containing the pit in your hand and face it away from you. Gently stick the tip of the knife into the side of the pit and carefully pry it out of the avocado. For a ripe avocado, the pit will pop out with little effort. You can hold a kitchen towel in your hand and place the avocado in the towel for added protection from the edge of your knife.
  • Place the avocado halves on a tray. Using a pastry brush, brush oil on each of the avocado halves.
  • Place the avocados on the grill, flesh side down, and grill for 3-4 minutes, until grill marks appear.
  • Remove the avocados and brush with honey.
  • In a small bowl, mix the mango, onions, jalapeños, cilantro, lime juice, and salt until well combined.
  • Spoon the salsa into the avocados and serve.

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use ripe avocados that are slightly firm to the touch.
  • To easily scoop out the avocado flesh, cut the avocado in half lengthwise, then use a spoon to scoop out the flesh, leaving the skin intact.
  • To prevent the avocado from browning, sprinkle it with lemon or lime juice.
  • If you don't have mango, you can substitute another tropical fruit, such as pineapple, papaya, or kiwi.
  • For a spicier filling, add a pinch of chili powder or cayenne pepper to the tuna salad.
  • To make the dish more substantial, add some cooked quinoa or rice to the filling.
  • If you're making these avocados ahead of time, store them in the refrigerator for up to 4 hours before serving.
