List of Ingredients




2 servings

1 firm-ripe papaya (about 1 lb.)
1/4 cup finely diced red onion
1 fresh jalapeno or serrano chili, rinsed, stemmed, seeded, and minced
2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro leaves
1 tablespoon lime juice
Salt
2 ahi tuna steaks (each 5 to 6 oz. and about 1 in. thick)
2 teaspoons olive oil
Coarsely ground black pepper


Recipe



1. Peel and seed papaya; cut into 1/2-inch cubes.

2. In a bowl, mix papaya, onion, chili, cilantro, and lime juice. Add salt to taste. Set aside while preparing fish or cover and chill up to 4 hours.
