Cook Time:

Difficulty: Easy

3 tbsps water
2 tbsps rice vinegar
1 tbsp grated ginger
1 1/2 tsps lime juice (with zest to taste)

Directions

Mix well and pour over cubed Ahi and Avocado.

“ Chardonnay may not be the traditional go-to for Ahi salad, but a bit of aging leveled off the acidity and the velvety texture of the avocado played off the creamy notes of the Chardonnay. This was a delicious and luxurious pairing.”

– Mary Davidek
