Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 300 grams fresh salmon fillet
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons lime juice
- 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.25 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 0.5 piece red chili, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons fresh dill, finely chopped
- 0.5 piece cucumber, thinly sliced
- 1 piece avocado, diced
- 1 piece radish, thinly sliced
- 0.25 cup microgreens (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Place the salmon fillet in the freezer for about 15 minutes to firm it up, making slicing easier.
Once slightly firm, remove the salmon from the freezer and use a sharp, long knife to slice it thinly, almost paper-thin.
Arrange the slices of salmon on a large serving platter in a single layer.
In a small bowl, mix together lemon juice, lime juice, extra virgin olive oil, sea salt, and black pepper.
Drizzle the citrus and olive oil mixture evenly over the arranged salmon slices.
Sprinkle the finely chopped red chili and fresh dill over the salmon, ensuring an even distribution for flavor.
Scatter the thin slices of cucumber and radish, along with the diced avocado, over the salmon.
If desired, add a touch of refinement by garnishing with microgreens.
Serve immediately as a refreshing starter or light main course.
