Wonton šŸ£ tuna nachos

Do they really count as ā€œnachosā€ if the wonton wrappers are baked into light, crispy bites of goodness? Nah, I didnā€™t think so either! These are so light, full of flavor, super easy and fast to make!


Ingredients

  • Ā½ pound sushi grade ahi tuna

  • Ā¼ teaspoon kosher salt

  • 2 tablespoons sesame seeds (I use the already toasted ones)

  • 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce

  • Vegetable oil, as needed

  • Package of wonton wrappers, cut in half diagonally

  • 1 teaspoon wasabi powder

  • 3 tablespoons Japanese mayonnaise or light avocado mayo

  • 1 teaspoon wasabi paste

  • 1 cup finely shredded green cabbage

  • 1 medium haas avocado, peeled, seeded and diced

  • 1 tablespoon sriracha

  • 2 tablespoons chopped cilantro

  • 1 medium jalapeƱo, thinly sliced

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350Ā°F, spray cookie sheets with nonstick spray and line your cookie sheets with the cut wontons. Sprinkle with sea salt and bake for 5-8 minutes (depending on hot crispy you like them) until all chips have been cooked. Place the chips in a bowl and set aside.

  • Season the tuna with kosher salt, wasabi powder and sesame seeds. Heat a large sautĆ© pan or griddle on high heat. Add the olive oil and heat through. Once the olive oil and pan are heated, sear the tuna on each side for about 1 minute.

  • Remove the tuna to a cutting board and slice into 1ā€ cubes. The tuna should be seared in the outside but mostly raw on the inside. Add to a bowl and toss with the soy sauce. Refrigerate until ready to serve or leave at room temp.

  • In a small bowl, whisk the mayonnaise and wasabi paste together until throughly combined. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.

  • Spread the wonton chips out on a large platter. Top with the shredded cabbage followed by the avocado and tuna. Drizzle with the wasabi mayonnaise and the sriracha then top with the cilantro, and jalapeƱos. Serve immediately!

  • Cheers,
