Ingredients
- 250 grams Salmon fillet
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce (low sodium)
- 1 tablespoon Rice wine vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Toasted sesame oil
- 1 teaspoon Wasabi paste
- 1 tablespoon Fresh chives
- 10 grams Pickled ginger
- 0.5 whole Lemon
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Begin by slicing the salmon fillet into thin slices, approximately 1/4 inch thick.
Step 2
In a small bowl, mix soy sauce, rice wine vinegar, and toasted sesame oil to create a marinade.
Step 3
Place the salmon slices in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them. Cover and refrigerate for 10 minutes.
Step 4
Remove the salmon from the refrigerator and gently pat each piece dry with a paper towel.
Step 5
Season the salmon slices with salt and black pepper on both sides.
Step 6
Using a kitchen blowtorch, sear the top side of each slice of salmon until the surface is lightly caramelized. Be careful not to overcook; the goal is a lightly seared exterior.
Step 7
Chop the fresh chives finely and set aside. Slice the lemon into thin wedges.
Step 8
Arrange the aburi salmon on a serving platter. Garnish with a dollop of wasabi paste, a sprinkle of chopped chives, and a few slices of pickled ginger.
Step 9
Finish by squeezing a small amount of fresh lemon juice over the salmon before serving.
Step 10
Enjoy your Low Carb Aburi Salmon as a delightful and flavorful dish perfect for a quick, healthy meal.
