Fish on a Stick!



For some reason, if food is on a stick, it somehow tastes better. I don’t know if it actually IS better, but it makes the act of eating more like a sport, and in turn, more fun. That’s just my opinion.

Granted, while most food on a stick is tasty, it's also unhealthy. I plan to offer an alternative for your next shin-dig. This is easy, healthy and refreshing – AND, it doesn’t require a deep fryer!


Ahi Tuna Skewers

1 small Ahi Tuna steak (tell the butcher that you need Sashimi grade tuna)
3 Avacados
2 Ruby Red Grapefruits
1/2 cup Tamarin Soy Sauce
1 teaspoon Wasabi (or more depending on your liking)

Freeze the Ahi for about an hour and a half before prepping.
Cut the tuna into 1 inch cubes.
Cut the avocado into 1 inch cubes (this doesn't have to be perfect, just about the same size as the tuna)
Peel the grapefruit and sliver it.

Now place the tuna, avocado and grapefruit on the end of the skewer and display on a platter. In the center, put a bowl with the soy sauce and wasabi mixture.

Voila!
