In a small mixing bowl, whisk the extra-virgin olive oil, sesame oil, rice wine vinegar and orange juice together. Add the cilantro, orange zest and garlic. Season with salt and pepper. In a mixing bowl, combine the arugula, radicchio, endive and radish sprouts together.
Toss the greens with the vinaigrette. Season with salt and pepper.
Slice the tuna loin into 2 inch slices. On an over-sized platter, mound the greens in the center of the platter. Arrange the tuna around the greens. Sprinkle the fried wontons around the tuna.
Garnish with the pickled ginger, drizzle of sesame oil and parsley.
