Start by placing the salmon fillet in the freezer for about 15 minutes to firm up and make slicing easier.
While the salmon is in the freezer, prepare the other ingredients. Thinly slice the radish and set aside.
Chop the fresh dill and chives finely. Peel, pit, and thinly slice the avocado.
In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, lime juice, and extra virgin olive oil.
Remove the salmon from the freezer and, using a sharp knife, slice as thinly as possible against the grain.
Arrange the salmon slices on a serving platter, slightly overlapping each piece.
Drizzle the citrus and olive oil mixture evenly over the salmon.
Sprinkle the fresh dill, chives, sea salt, and black pepper over the salmon slices.
Gently place the avocado and radish slices over the salmon.
Finish by adding arugula around the plate, creating a bed or small salad to accompany the crudo.
Serve immediately, allowing the flavors to meld for a few minutes before serving for optimal taste.
