Ingredients
 
 

  • 8 oz Hamachi (Yellowtail) - sushi grade
  • 2 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil - or yuzu oil if you have it
  • 1 tbsp Soy Sauce - use Tamari for gluten free
  • 1 tsp Lime Juice - freshly squeezed
  • 1 small Red Chili - very thinly sliced
  • Sea Salt - flakes
  • Microgreens - or herbs - cilantro, shiso, or chives

Instructions
 

  • Place the hamachi in the freezer for 10–15 minutes. This makes it easier to slice very thin.
  • Meanwhile, whisk together olive oil, soy sauce, and lime juice until well incorporated and emulsified.
  • With a very sharp knife, carefully cut the fish into thin sashimi-style slices. Arrange on a chilled plate in a single layer.
  • Top with the slices of red chili and and a scattering of microgreens and/or fresh herbs.
  • Spoon the dressing lightly over the fish slices, finish with a sprinkle of sea salt flakes then serve immediately.
