Tuna Tartare with Avocado, Shallots and Chives-- Lemon Olive Oil

 



Service for 4

Tuna Tartare is one of the quickest and easiest dishes to prepare and tastes great if market fresh tuna. See if you can also find young shallots at the market which are available during summer.

Ingredients

1 lb. fresh tuna cut into 1/2 " dice
3 T. Panko bread crumbs
1 avocado (1/2 " diced)
3 t. olive oil
1 T. finely chopped shallot
1 T finely chopped chives
Fresh Squeezed Lemon Juice to taste
pepper
Sea Salt

   

Note: To dice the tuna it is best to put the tuna in the freezer for 5 minutes to firm up. If the avocado is fresh that too can be cooled to make dicing easier. Dice both into equal sizes -- about 1/2".

Add finely dice shallots and chives to the tuna and avocado. Carefully fold in olive oil and season to taste with sea salt and pepper. Drizzle over lemon juice to taste.
