Sabrina’s Poke Sauce Recipe
This rich, tangy, and savory Poke Sauce is the essential topping for fresh seafood poke bowls. Poke bowls are a beloved Hawaiian dish consisting of diced raw fish, usually tuna or salmon, marinated in the sauce then served on top of steamed rice. The bowls also have an assortment of toppings like edamame, seaweed salad, cucumbers, vegetables, and of course more poke sauce. I’ve included marinating instructions for tuna below, but you can use it with other sushi grade fish too. If raw fish isn’t your thing, try it as a marinade or finishing sauce for grilled chicken or shrimp!
