Start by preparing your brown rice as instructed on the package. Typically, it takes about 30 - 40 minutes to cook and we have lots of work to do in the meantime!
-
Prepare your Gluten Free Citrus Ponzu. Combine all ingredients except Bonito flakes in a small saucepan and bring to a boil. Remove from heat and stir in Bonito flakes. Let the mixture cool, then strain into a bowl (I found a cheesecloth worked well). Cover and refrigerate until we assemble the bowls.
-
Prepare the Ahi Tuna Poke. Begin by dicing the ahi tuna fillet into bite sized pieces. Add ahi tuna to a bowl with 2 tbsp of Gluten Free Citrus Ponzu along with 1 tbsp of roasted sesame seeds and 1 tbsp of chopped scallion. Cover and refrigerate to marinate while we work on the rest of the recipe.
-
Prepare the Sriracha Garlic Aioli by mincing garlic, then combining all ingredients in a medium, metal bowl. Whisk together. Cover and refrigerate until we assemble the bowls.
-
Start prepping the fruit and veggies. Trim the ends from your asparagus and light up the BBQ (I love the texture of grilled asparagus, but you can feel free to saute or boil it!). Begin by seasoning the asparagus with olive oil, Himalayan pink salt and grilling at 500°F for 5 minutes on each side (approximately 10 minutes total, depending on the size of your asparagus). Once bright green and tender, remove from the grill and set aside to cool. Your rice should be ready around this time!
-
While the asparagus is grilling, slice everything up for your poke bowls! Begin by slicing cucumber into matchsticks, dicing mango, spiralizing (or shredding) carrots and slicing avocado. Remove the root from the Inspired Greens Living lettuce, wash the leaves.
-
Assemble Ahi Tuna Poke Bowls by adding 1/2 a cup of rice to one side of your bowl, then add Inspired Greens to the other, along the perimeter. Build your bowls in a clockwise format, adding fruits and veggies as you go.
-
Reserve a spot in the middle for 1/2 cup of Ahi Tuna Poke. Top with approximately 3 tbsp of Gluten Free Citrus Ponzu and a drizzle of Sriracha Garlic Aioli.
-
Garnish with roasted sesame seeds, nori, scallion and whatever else your heart desires.
