Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 300 grams fresh sushi-grade tuna
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil (low-fat alternative)
- 0.5 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.25 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon fresh chives
- 2 radishes (thinly sliced)
- 0.5 cucumber (thinly sliced)
- 1 handful microgreens (optional garnish)
Instructions
Ensure the tuna is fresh, sushi-grade, and properly stored. Pat the tuna dry with a paper towel to remove excess moisture.
Using a sharp knife, slice the tuna into thin, even slices. Arrange the slices slightly overlapping on a chilled serving plate or platter.
Drizzle the lemon juice evenly over the tuna slices, ensuring each slice is lightly coated.
In a small bowl, whisk together the low-fat olive oil, sea salt, and freshly ground black pepper.
Using a small spoon, lightly drizzle the olive oil mixture over the tuna slices. Take care not to overpower the delicate flavors of the fish.
Finely chop the chives and sprinkle them over the tuna for added flavor and color.
Decorate the platter with the thinly sliced radishes and cucumber, arranging them next to or on top of the tuna for a fresh, crunchy element.
If desired, garnish the dish with a small handful of microgreens for additional texture and visual appeal.
Serve immediately as a chilled appetizer, enjoying the light, refreshing flavors of the Low Fat Tuna Crudo.
