Directions
Step 1
Place the salmon fillet in the freezer for about 15 minutes to firm it up, making slicing easier.
Step 2
Once slightly firm, remove the salmon from the freezer and use a sharp, long knife to slice it thinly, almost paper-thin.
Step 3
Arrange the slices of salmon on a large serving platter in a single layer.
Step 4
In a small bowl, mix together lemon juice, lime juice, extra virgin olive oil, sea salt, and black pepper.
Step 5
Drizzle the citrus and olive oil mixture evenly over the arranged salmon slices.
Step 6
Sprinkle the finely chopped red chili and fresh dill over the salmon, ensuring an even distribution for flavor.
Step 7
Scatter the thin slices of cucumber and radish, along with the diced avocado, over the salmon.
Step 8
If desired, add a touch of refinement by garnishing with microgreens.
Step 9
Serve immediately as a refreshing starter or light main course.
