   Pat the 2 tuna steaks dry with paper towels and season both sides with the 0.5 tsp black pepper and a pinch of salt.

2. 2

   Spiralize the 2 zucchini into noodles using a spiralizer or vegetable peeler. Set aside on paper towels to absorb excess moisture.

4. 4

   In a small bowl, whisk together the 3 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tsp sesame oil, and remaining 1 tbsp olive oil to make the drizzle.

5. 5

   In the same skillet over medium heat, add the zucchini noodles and toss for 1-2 minutes until just warmed but still crisp. Remove from heat.

6. 6

   Slice the 1 avocado. Divide the zucchini noodles between plates, top with sliced tuna, avocado slices, and drizzle with the soy sauce mixture.

7. 7

   Serve immediately, finishing with extra black pepper if desired.
