Poke Nachos with Spicy Tuna

The only thing better than poke is turning into poke nachos! It's my absolute favorite appetizer to order at any restaurant so of course we had to make it at home and even better. The chips are made from wonton wrappers for the ultimate crunch to balance the melt in your mouth spicy tuna!

Instructions 

MAKE THE SPICY TUNA

  1. To a bowl, add the diced tuna along with sriracha, soy sauce, sesame oil, and lime juice. Mix together.

MAKE THE SPICY MAYO

  1. To make the spicy mayo, mix together mayo, sriracha, red pepper flakes, sesame oil, sugar, and lemon juice in a small bowl. Once it's creamy and smooth, set aside.

FRY THE CHIPS

  1. In a deep pan, heat vegetable oil 1 to 2 inches high until it reaches 325°F to 350°F.
  2. While the oil heats up, cut the egg roll or wonton wrappers into triangles about the shape of a tortilla chip.
  3. Once the oil is hot, add the wonton triangles in batches to not overcrowd them.
  4. When the chips are golden and bubbly, take out the oil and drain them on a wire rack and repeat with the rest.
  5. Add a sprinkle of sea salt to the wonton chips if you'd like and then it's time to assemble.

ASSEMBLE

  1. To a bowl or tray, add the chips and then the tuna, spicy mayo, unagi sauce, avocado, cilantro, sesame seeds, green onions, and jalapenos to enjoy!
