Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Fresh squid, cleaned
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 3 tablespoons Coconut aminos
- 1 teaspoon Fresh ginger, finely grated
- 1 clove Garlic, finely minced
- 2 stalks Green onions, thinly sliced
- 1 teaspoon Sesame oil (optional for garnish, Whole30-compliant brands only)
- 1 pinch Sea salt
- 1 small Cucumber, thinly sliced
- 1 medium Avocado, sliced
Instructions
Start by cleaning the fresh squid thoroughly. Remove the skin, beak, internal organs, and cartilage. Rinse under cold water and pat dry with paper towels.
With a very sharp knife, slice the squid into thin strips or rings, approximately 3–5 mm thick, for the sashimi.
Arrange the squid slices on a chilled plate or serving platter in an even layer.
In a small bowl, mix together lemon juice, coconut aminos, grated ginger, and minced garlic to create a Whole30-compliant dipping sauce.
Drizzle the squid sashimi lightly with the dipping sauce. Reserve some sauce for serving at the table, if desired.
Sprinkle a pinch of sea salt over the sashimi and garnish with thinly sliced green onions.
Serve the squid sashimi alongside thinly sliced cucumber and avocado for freshness and extra nutrients.
For optional garnish, drizzle a very small amount of Whole30-compliant sesame oil over the sashimi to enhance flavor (optional but recommended).
Serve immediately while the dish is chilled and fresh. Pair with sparkling water or herbal tea for a refreshing Whole30-approved meal.
