Tuna & Avocado Poke

Ingredients

• 1
  
  pound sashimi grade tuna, cut into 1/3-inch cubes
  
• 1
  
  shallot, minced
  
• 2
  
  teaspoons grated fresh ginger
  
• 1
  
  jalapeno chile minced (optional)
  
• 2
  
  tablespoons sesame oil
  
• 1/4
  
  cup soy sauce
  
• 3
  
  tablespoons finely chopped cilantro
  
• 1
  
  avocado, cut into 1/3-inch cubes
  
• 
  
  Salt and pepper to taste
  
• 
  
  Bibb lettuce, to serve
  

Directions

1. Combine the tuna, shallot, ginger, jalapeno (if using), sesame oil, soy sauce, and cilantro in a medium bowl and toss gently to combine. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1 to 2 hours before serving.
2. Just before serving, fold in the avocado. Season with salt and pepper to taste. (I found that it was flavorful enough without salt and pepper, but season according to your taste.)
