Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Combine mayonnaise, sriracha, sesame oil, soy sauce, and lime juice. Whisk until smooth, then refrigerate for 10 minutes.
  2. Dice the sushi-grade tuna into small cubes, mix with red onion, green onion, and sesame seeds, then fold in the dressing. Refrigerate for 15-20 minutes.
  3. Heat oil in a skillet to 350°F. Fry wonton wrappers one at a time for 1-2 minutes until golden brown. Alternatively, bake at 375°F for 6-8 minutes.
  4. Fill each wonton shell with the tuna mixture carefully, avoiding overfilling.
  5. Top each taco with avocado slices and jalapeño or pickled ginger. Serve immediately.
