Asian Grilled Tuna Salad
The following recipe, video and photography were provided by our partner, Chef Billy Parisi.
Sweet and savory flavors combine in this delicious tuna-topped salad.
Heinen’s fresh tuna is a steak-like fish with a mild and sweet flavor, which makes it perfect on top of an Asian-inspired salad with sesame ginger or ginger mandarin dressing.
As a bonus, summer is stone fruit season, so now is the perfect time to add fresh-grilled peaches to your leafy green dishes for an extra pop of fruity flavor.
