Description

These Spicy Tuna Crunchwraps are a crave-worthy combo of creamy, spicy tuna, crunchy wonton or tortilla chips, avocado, and fresh veggies all wrapped up in a crispy tortilla. Inspired by sushi flavors but with the satisfying feel of a handheld wrap—these are perfect for lunch, dinner, or a party appetizer.


Ingredients

For the Spicy Tuna:

  • 1 (5 oz) can tuna in water, drained

  • 2 tablespoons mayonnaise (Japanese mayo if available)

  • 1-2 teaspoons sriracha (adjust to taste)

  • 1/2 teaspoon sesame oil

  • 1 teaspoon soy sauce

  • 1 green onion, finely chopped

For the Crunchwraps:

  • 4 large flour tortillas

  • 4 tostada shells, crispy wonton wrappers, or a handful of tortilla chips

  • 1 avocado, sliced or mashed

  • 1/2 cup shredded lettuce

  • 1/2 cup shredded carrots or cucumber matchsticks

  • Optional: pickled ginger, seaweed strips, extra sriracha or spicy mayo for drizzle

  • Oil or butter, for grilling


Instructions

  1. Make the spicy tuna: In a bowl, combine tuna, mayo, sriracha, sesame oil, soy sauce, and green onion. Mix until smooth and creamy.

  2. Assemble the crunchwraps:

    • Lay one tortilla flat.

    • In the center, layer a scoop of spicy tuna, avocado, veggies, and your crunchy element (tostada shell or chips).

    • Add any extras like seaweed or drizzle more spicy mayo.

    • Fold the edges of the tortilla inwards around the filling, creating pleats to form a sealed wrap. Flip seam-side down.

  3. Cook: Heat a skillet over medium heat and lightly oil or butter it. Place the wrap seam-side down and cook for 2–3 minutes per side, until golden and crisp.

  4. Slice in half and serve warm with extra sauce or soy dipping sauce!


Notes

  • Want a sushi-style crunchwrap? Use sushi-grade raw tuna, chopped and mixed the same way.

  • Swap tuna for cooked salmon or tofu for a variation.

  • These are best served fresh for maximum crunch!
