A vibrant and refreshing Thai-inspired salad featuring marinated tuna, fresh vegetables, and aromatic herbs, perfect for a light meal.
Ingredients
1 pound tuna
2 tablespoons fish sauce
2 tablespoons lime juice
1 teaspoon honey
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 cup tomatoes
1/4 cup green onions
1 piece red chili pepper
1/4 cup cilantro
1/4 cup basil
Method
Begin by whisking together the fish sauce, freshly squeezed lime juice, and a drizzle of honey in a mixing bowl.
Place the tuna in a large resealable plastic bag, then pour the marinade over it. Seal the bag and let it chill in the refrigerator for roughly one hour.
Heat two tablespoons of olive oil in a wok over high heat until it's almost smoking. Add half of the marinated tuna to the hot wok and stir-fry for about a minute, or until it reaches your desired doneness. Transfer the cooked tuna to a spacious bowl and repeat with the remaining tuna and oil.
After all the tuna is sautéed, gently mix it with diced tomatoes, chopped green onions, sliced red chili, fresh cilantro, and fragrant basil. Serve right away for a delightful experience.
