Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams kingfish fillet, sashimi-grade
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 2 teaspoons capers
- 1 tablespoon fresh dill
- 0.5 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground
- 5 pieces cherry tomatoes, thinly sliced
- 0.25 piece red onion, finely sliced
- 0.5 piece cucumber, thinly sliced
- 0.25 bulb fennel, thinly sliced
- 5 leaves fresh basil leaves
Instructions
Ensure your kingfish fillet is of high quality and sashimi-grade. Pat it dry with a paper towel to remove any excess moisture.
With a sharp knife, slice the kingfish across the grain into thin slices, approximately 1/4 inch thick.
Arrange the kingfish slices on a chilled platter, slightly overlapping them for a beautiful presentation.
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the extra virgin olive oil and lemon juice to create a simple vinaigrette.
Drizzle the olive oil and lemon juice mixture evenly over the arranged kingfish slices.
Sprinkle the capers over the sashimi, ensuring an even distribution.
Finely chop the fresh dill and sprinkle it along with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper over the fish.
Add the garnish by scattering thin slices of cherry tomatoes, red onion, cucumber, and fennel over and around the kingfish.
Finish the dish by garnishing with fresh basil leaves.
Serve immediately while the ingredients are fresh and flavors are vibrant. Enjoy your Mediterranean-inspired kingfish sashimi.
