Season the tuna with salt and pepper on both sides and sear in a hot pan over high heat with soy oil for 2 minutes on each side. Slice thinly and set aside. For the vinaigrette, blend the vinegar with the garlic, capers, parsley, olives, and pepper. While blending, incorporate the olive oil in a thin stream. In a bowl, combine the avocado with the tomato, mango, red onion, and hearts of palm. Add a little of the vinaigrette and adjust the seasoning. Serve the lettuce hearts, place some slices of tuna on top, and add the avocado salad. Garnish with toasted sesame seeds and serve with more vinaigrette.
