Fresh tuna, spicy sour cream, and crunchy cabbage are wrapped in warm flour tortillas in this delicious twist on fish tacos. If fresh sushi-grade tuna is not available try halibut, mahi-mahi or other firm fish. Adjust the spiciness of the wasabi-sour cream to your personal taste. Ingredients:
10 ounces sashimi-grade tuna, cut into 1-inch thick slices |
1/4 cup light soy sauce |
ground black pepper to taste |
1/4 cup light sour cream |
1 tablespoon wasabi paste, or to taste |
1 tablespoon peanut oil |
4 flour tortillas |
1 cup finely shredded cabbage |
1/4 cup minced green onion |
Directions:
1. Marinate tuna slices in soy sauce in a bowl, 10 to 15 minutes. 2. Remove fish from soy sauce to a plate and season with black pepper; set aside. 3. Whisk sour cream and wasabi paste together in a small bowl; cover and refrigerate until ready to use. 4. Heat peanut oil in a heavy skillet over high heat. Sear tuna slices in hot oil until lightly browned, 15 to 20 seconds per side. 5. Transfer rare tuna to a cutting board and cut into smaller pieces. 6. Heat tortillas in a clean skillet over medium heat until warmed through, about 1 minute each. 7. Serve tuna in warm tortillas topped with cabbage, green onion, and wasabi sour cream. |
