Ingredients:
- 15 square wonton wrappers
- Olive oil spray
- 4 ounces sushi-grade tuna, finely diced
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 1 teaspoon grated ginger, or ginger paste
- 2 tablespoons mirin
- 2 tablespoons low sodium soy sauce
- 1/4 cup lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 3 whole scallions, thinly sliced including white parts
- 1/4 cup pineapple, finely diced
- 1 jalapeño, seeded and thinly sliced
- 1 avocado, diced
- 1/2 tablespoon sesame seeds
- Spicy mayo, for topping
Instructions:
- Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare two baking sheets by spraying them with a thin layer of olive oil. Slice the wonton wrappers diagonally to create triangles. 🔪
- Bake the Wonton Chips: Arrange the wonton triangles on the baking sheet in a single layer. Bake them on the middle rack for 8 minutes. Afterward, lightly spray the wonton wrappers with olive oil and return them to the oven for an additional 4-6 minutes or until golden brown and crispy. If desired, you can add a small pinch of salt to the wonton chips after spritzing them. 🍽️
- Prepare the Poke Sauce: While the wonton chips are baking, it’s time to make the poke sauce. In a medium bowl, combine the minced garlic, grated ginger, mirin, soy sauce, lemon juice, toasted sesame oil, rice vinegar, and the thinly sliced white parts of the scallions. Mix until well combined. Add the finely diced tuna to the mixture and toss to coat. Place the bowl in the refrigerator to marinate for 10-15 minutes. 🥢
- Assemble the Nachos: Once the wonton chips are ready, arrange them on a serving plate. Top the chips with the marinated tuna, diced pineapple, sliced jalapeño, diced avocado, sesame seeds, and the green parts of the sliced scallions. Drizzle the dish with spicy mayo for an extra kick of flavor. 🍍🥑🌶️
