How to make it:
Chop up the fresh ahi steaks into bite-sized cubes and set aside. In a clean mixing bowl, whisk the soy sauce, sesame seed oil, sriracha, ginger, onions and sesame seeds. Place the fresh ahi cubes in a bowl and pour the sauce over the fish. Mix the ahi until the pieces are well coated with the marinade. Top with a dash of sea salt to taste and mix in the green onions. Cover your masterpiece and refrigerate for 2 to 4 hours prior to serving. If you are adding any extra “flare toppings” like avocado, pineapple, mango or cucumber, mix them in at the end. Enjoy over brown rice or if you are watching your carbs, serve the ahi poke in half of an avocado! Top with fresh ginger and of course, don’t forget your chopsticks!
