In a skillet placed over medium-high heat, preheat the cooking fat until very hot, but not so much that it burns.
2 tablespoon Paleo cooking fat.
Add the tuna steak to the skillet and cook each side for 4 to 5 minutes, until the fish breaks apart easily with a fork.
1 pound tuna steak or canned Tuna
Once the tuna is cooked, let it rest for about 10 minutes.
In a bowl, combine the tuna, garlic, lemon juice, green onions, and olive oil or mayonnaise, then season with sea salt and black pepper to taste. Make sure to keep some of the green parts of the green onions aside. Using a fork, make sure to combine everything well and break apart the tuna.
The juice of half a lemon, 2 big green onions, 1 garlic clove, Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste, About ½ cup of extra-virgin olive oil or 1 cup of Paleo mayonnaise
Take the two avocados and cut them lengthwise around the pit. Twist the two halves to open. Remove the pit with a spoon, gently making sure not to break the avocado itself.
2 ripe avocados
Place a big scoop of the tuna mixture into each cavity of the avocados. Sprinkle the top of each avocado boat with some paprika, then add some green onions on top and serve.
