The tuna should be seared on the outside and raw inside. Allow to cool slightly then cut into large bit-size cubes.
For the dressing: in a small bowl, whisk together 1/4 Cup olive oil, lime zest, lime juice, wasabi powder, soy sauce, Tabasco, and 1/2 tsp pepper. Toss avocados in the dressing. Arrange avocados, tuna, and red onion on individual plates. Drizzle with more dressing and sprinkle with scallions and toasted sesame seeds. Serve at room temperature. |

Notes: Buy avocados in advance and allow them to ripen at room temperature. Once ripe, they can be refrigerated for a few days. Cut avocados right before you are ready to serve to prevent browning.
To toast sesame seeds: place them in a dry sauté pan and cook over low heat for 5 to 10 minutes, tossing often, until the seeds turn a golden brown. Remove from pan immediately.
