Ensure your bass filet is skinless and boneless. Use a very sharp knife to slice the bass into thin, even pieces.
Arrange the slices on a chilled serving platter in a single layer.
In a small bowl, mix the extra virgin olive oil, lemon juice, and lime juice. Use a small whisk or fork to emulsify the mixture.
Drizzle the emulsion over the bass slices, ensuring each piece is evenly coated.
Sprinkle the orange zest over the bass to add fragrance and a hint of citrus flavor.
Chop the fennel fronds and dill finely. Evenly distribute over the bass.
Season with pink Himalayan salt and freshly cracked black pepper to your taste.
Finely slice the red chili, removing seeds if you prefer less heat, and sprinkle across the dish.
Using a mandoline, thinly slice the radishes and layer them delicately over the bass.
Garnish the crudo with a handful of micro greens for a fresh, vibrant finish.
Serve immediately to enjoy the fresh flavors at their best.
