  • Author: Clara Walker
  • Total Time: 25 minutes

Ingredients

– 1 lb fresh tuna steak
– 1 tablespoon olive oil
– Salt and pepper, to taste
– 8 large lettuce leaves (such as butter or romaine)
– 1 cup fresh mango, diced
– 1 cup corn kernels (fresh, frozen, or canned)
– 1 tablespoon lime juice
– 1 tablespoon cilantro, chopped
– 1 small red onion, finely chopped
– 1 jalapeño, seeded and minced (optional)
– 1 avocado, sliced (optional)


Instructions

Preparing Seared Tuna Lettuce Wraps with Mango Salsa & Roasted Corn is an easy process. Follow these steps for a delicious meal:

1. Prepare the Corn: If using fresh corn, roast it on a grill or in a skillet over medium heat until it’s slightly charred. If using frozen or canned corn, simply heat it until warm.
2. Season the Tuna: Rub the fresh tuna steak with olive oil, salt, and pepper.
3. Sear the Tuna: Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the tuna steak and sear for about 2-3 minutes on each side, depending on your desired doneness. Remove from heat and let rest for a few minutes.
4. Make the Mango Salsa: In a bowl, combine the diced mango, corn, lime juice, cilantro, red onion, and jalapeño (if using). Mix gently to combine and set aside.
5. Slice the Tuna: After resting, slice the seared tuna into thin strips.
6. Prepare the Lettuce Wraps: Lay out the lettuce leaves on a serving platter.
7. Assemble the Wraps: Place a few slices of tuna in each lettuce leaf, then top with a generous spoonful of mango salsa.
8. Optional Toppings: Add sliced avocado on top if desired for extra creaminess.
9. Serve: Arrange the lettuce wraps on a platter and serve immediately.
