Number Of Ingredients 11

Ingredients

1 8 ounce Tuna Steak
1/2 tbsp taco seasoning
1 tbsp olive oil
8 flour tortillas
2 cups pre shredded cabbage ((I used a mix with cabbage and carrots))
1/4 cup radishes (about 2-3, sliced thin)
1/4 cup fresh cilantro
sesame seeds for garnish (if desired)
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/2 teaspoon sriracha (or more to taste depending on how spicy you like it)
1/2 teaspoon lime juice

Steps:

Heat oil in a saute pan. Meanwhile pat the tuna dry with paper towels. Sprinkle the seasoning on all sides of the tuna.
Once the pan is hot add tuna and sear on all sides until golden brown. Remove from the pan and allow the tuna to rest before slicing into thin slices.
To assemble tacos place a sprinkle of cabbage onto each taco and place some radishes on top.
Top with pieces of tuna and a sprinkle of cilantro and sesame seeds on top, if desired.
Serve immediately with a drizzle of sriracha mayo.
Add all the ingredients to a small bowl and whisk to combine. Set aside until you are ready to eat your tacos.
