1 large, firm but ripe mango, medium dice
1 medium tomato, small dice
1 medium Jalapeno, seeded and diced into small pieces
1 small red onion, diced finely
2 tablespoons lime juice
1/4 cup cilantro, roughly chopped
Salt to taste
2 ahí tuna steaks
Olive oil

Steps:

Salsa: Combine all of the salsa ingredients in a small bowl. Stir, just enough to mix. Put into the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to let the flavors combine together. Preheat barbecue grill or a stovetop grill. Lightly coat both sides of the ahi steaks with some olive oil. Place the steak onto direct heat, and cook only until grill marks form; about 3 to 5 minutes depending on how hot the grill is. Turn the steak over and cook for another 3 to 5 minutes. Remove the ahi from the heat, and set aside. Do not overcook the tuna or the flesh will become dry and lose its flavor. The steak will have a white ring around the edges and the center will be very pink when it is finished cooking. Remove from the grill. Spoon the salsa over the top. Serve. Eat.
