Ingredients 

  • 1 lb ahi tuna
  • 2 tbsp shoyu soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp ponzu sauce
  • 1 tbsp sesame oil
  • 1 tbsp lime juice
  • Wonton Wrappers or Tortilla Chips

Yum Yum Sauce

  • 1/2 cup Mayo
  • 2 tbsp butter, melted
  • 1 tbsp ketchup
  • 1 tbsp rice wine vinegar
  • 2 garlic cloves, grated
  • 1 tsp sugar
  • 2 tbsp water
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • salt, to taste

Toppings (optional)

  • Avocado
  • Sesame Seeds
  • Cilantro
  • Jalapenos, sliced
  • Cucumber, cut into chunks
  • Seaweed, sliced thinly
  • Crispy Onions
  • Green Onions
  • Garlic Crisps

Instructions 

  • If using wonton wrappers, heat about 2 cups of oil to 350 degrees F. Cut the wonton wrappers into triangles and fry in batches to prevent overcrowding the pan. Fry until golden brown, then remove onto a paper towel to remove excess grease.
  • Cut tuna into chunks and add to a medium bowl. Add soy sauce, ponzu sauce, sesame oil, and lime juice. Toss together.
  • Make the yum yum sauce by combining all of the ingredients together in a bowl.
  • Add wonton chips or tortilla chips to a serving bowl or tray. Top with marinated tuna, yum yum sauce, avocado, sesame seeds, cilantro, jalapenos, cucumbers, seaweed, and crispy onions. Drizzle again with leftover yum yum sauce.

Notes

  • Ensure chips are crispy and fresh. If using wonton wrappers, fry them in small batches to avoid overcrowding and ensure they are golden brown and crispy. If using tortilla chips, make sure they are fresh to maintain the crunch.
  • Prepare the yum yum sauce just before serving. Combine mayo, melted butter, ketchup, rice wine vinegar, grated garlic, sugar, water, smoked paprika, onion powder, and salt to taste to make a rich, flavorful sauce. Preparing it fresh ensures the best consistency and flavor.
  • Assemble just before serving to maintain texture. Arrange the chips on a serving tray, add the marinated tuna, drizzle with yum yum sauce, and top with fresh ingredients like avocado, jalapenos, cucumber, seaweed, and crispy onions to keep everything crisp.
Variations
  • Add some heat! Make spicy tuna by mixing the tuna with sriracha and mayo to taste to add heat to the dish. If you have any sambal, you can add that too!
  • Baked Wonton Chips: Instead of frying the chips, you can bake them at 350°F for about 10-12 minutes, turning halfway through until they are golden and crispy. This method is a healthier alternative.
  • Sauces: If you don't want to use the yum yum sauce, you can try a sriracha sauce you can try spicy mayo, eel sauce, or a spicy wasabi sauce. You can also use sauce for seafood boil or avocado crema and drizzle it on top!
  • Turn these poke nachos into a poke bowl! Simply follow the recipe as is and serve over a bed of rice - it's beyond delicious!
