- 1 tablespoon truffle oil (plus more to taste – I prefer just a slight hint)

Instructions
- Dice the Persian cucumber and avocado. Add this to a mixing bowl with the lemon juice and zest.

- Dice the tuna into small 1/4” pieces. Add this to the mixing bowl, along with the kosher salt, black pepper, olive oil, and truffle oil. Give this a light mix, being careful not to smash the fish. Taste, adjust seasoning as desired, and plate into a shallow bowl. Top with another drizzle of olive oil or truffle oil, and the chives.
