Ahi Tuna Wonton Tacos
These Ahi Wonton Tacos are a quick and flavorful recipe to make on your griddle like a Cooking Steel or Blackstone or in a cast iron skillet. Seared ahi tuna is topped with a wasabi sauce and cooked up in fried wonton wrappers. It is a great seafood appetizer but is equally as fantastic as a meal.
