Fill a small bowl with cold water. Add the onion and set aside to soak.
In a food processor or blender, combine the cilantro, lime juice, soy sauce, garlic,1 of the serrano peppers, 2 tablespoons of water, and the salt. Blend until mostly smooth but some texture remains, about 30 seconds. Spread the sauce on the bottom of a large rimmed plate.
Arrange the tuna in a single layer on top of the sauce. Top with the avocado slices. Drain the red onion and pat dry. Thinly slice the remaining serrano pepper. Layer the onion and pepper on top of the avocado.
Garnish with fresh cilantro and serve immediately with chips alongside for scooping, if using.
