Description
Not only are these tacos fresh and easy, but from start to finish, they require no more than 20 minutes to fashion up. Seared tuna means crisp flavor on the outside and the fish stays tender inside.

Ahi
- 2 to 3 tablespoons grapeseed or canola oil

Instructions
To Prepare the Salsa

To Sear the Ahi
- In a medium-sized cast iron skillet (or regular skillet), heat the oil to medium-high. Sprinkle the ahi steaks with kosher salt and pepper on both sides.
- Carefully place the ahi steaks on the skillet and sear until crispy and the ahi is cooked about ¼” inch up the steak. Repeat for the other side.
- Place the ahi steaks on a cutting board and once cool enough to handle, use a sharp knife to cut the steaks.
- Heat the corn tortillas in the cast iron skillet. Place them on a plate and load them up with desired amount of ahi and mango avocado salsa.
