My Hawaiian poke nachos recipe is made with fresh ahi tuna, macadamia nuts and shoyu sauce. For a spicier version, drizzle the nachos with Sriracha mayo and fresh sliced jalapenos!
As with most Hawaiian recipes, ahi poke is best freshly prepared, though it can keep in the refrigerator up to one day.
I like to serve my fresh ahi poke on fried wonton triangles to make poke nachos. You can also form the wontons into “taco shells” for a different presentation.
