TUNA POKE

Steps:

• Combine 1 pound diced sushi-grade tuna, 1 cup diced cucumber and 1/4 cup chopped scallions in a bowl. Add 2 tablespoons soy sauce, 1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds, 1 teaspoon each lemon juice, sesame oil and rice vinegar, and 1/2 teaspoon each red pepper flakes and kosher salt; toss to coat. Cover and refrigerate 30 minutes. Serve in Bibb lettuce leaves with root vegetable chips.

TUNA CROQUETTE

Steps:

• Place the tuna, onions, mustard, eggs, lemon juice, salt, pepper and 1/4 cup of the bread crumbs into a medium mixing bowl and stir to combine. Divide the mixture into 8 rounds and set aside on a parchment lined half sheet pan. Allow to rest for 15 minutes. Place the remaining bread crumbs into a pie plate. One at a time, coat each round in the panko on all sides.
• Heat enough olive oil to cover the bottom of a 12-inch saute pan over medium heat until shimmering. Add the croquettes and cook 2 to 3 minutes on each side or until golden brown. Remove to a cooling rack set over a half sheet pan lined with paper towels. Allow to cool for 2 to 3 minutes before serving.
