Ingredients

• 2 pieces (about 6 oz each) Fresh tuna steaks
• 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon Paprika
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 4 pieces Flour tortillas
• 1 large Ripe avocado
• 1 cup Cherry tomatoes
• 0.5 medium (thinly sliced) Red onion
• 0.25 cup (chopped) Cilantro leaves
• 1 large Lime
• 0.25 cup Sour cream
• 1 teaspoon (or to taste) Hot sauce

Directions

Step 1

Start by preparing the tuna steaks. Pat them dry with paper towels.

Step 2

In a small bowl, mix together the ground cumin, paprika, salt, and black pepper.

Step 3

Rub the spice mixture evenly over both sides of the tuna steaks.

Step 4

Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat.

Step 5

Sear the tuna steaks for 1-2 minutes on each side, depending on your preferred doneness. For a perfectly seared tuna, the middle should remain pink. Remove from heat and let rest for a few minutes.

Step 6

While the tuna rests, slice the avocado and cherry tomatoes. Thinly slice the red onion and chop the cilantro leaves. Cut the lime into wedges.

Step 7

Warm the flour tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave for a few seconds until pliable.

Step 8

Slice the seared tuna into thin strips.

Step 9

Assemble the tortillas: Place slices of avocado, cherry tomatoes, red onion, and tuna onto each tortilla.

Step 10

In a small bowl, mix the sour cream and hot sauce. Drizzle this mixture over the toppings on each tortilla.

Step 11

Sprinkle with chopped cilantro and squeeze a wedge of lime over each tortilla for added freshness.

Step 12

Serve immediately and enjoy your Fresh Tuna Tortillas!
