Ingredients
-
1 pound sushi-grade tuna saku (sliced 1/4 inch thick)
1 red onion (small halved and thinly sliced)
¾ cup lime juice (freshly squeezed)
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 Hass avocado (large cut into /3-inch dice)
¼ cup cilantro (coarsely chopped, plus leaves for garnish)
Salt
Directions
Stack frozen slices of tuna. Using a very sharp chef’s knife, cut the tuna into neat 1/4-inch cubes. Transfer the cubed tuna to a medium glass or ceramic bowl and stir in the red onion, lime juice and black pepper. Cover the tuna with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1 hour, stirring gently with a plastic spatula every 15 to 20 minutes (the diced tuna will change color slightly).
Just before serving, gently fold in the diced avocado and chopped cilantro. Season the ceviche with salt. Transfer the ceviche to a serving bowl or individual glasses. Garnish with cilantro leaves.
