Ingredients
- 8 pieces Fresh sea scallops
- 2 tablespoons Fresh lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons Extra virgin olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Low-sodium soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon Fresh chives
- 1 teaspoon Grated ginger
- 1 teaspoon Black sesame seeds
- 1 piece Radish
- 0.5 cup Microgreens for garnish
Directions
Step 1
Begin by rinsing the sea scallops under cold running water and pat them dry with a paper towel. Ensure they're thoroughly dry to enhance the flavor absorption.
Step 2
Use a sharp knife to slice each scallop horizontally into thin, even slices. Aim for about 3-4 slices per scallop to maintain tenderness.
Step 3
Arrange the scallop slices in a single layer on a decorative plate, ensuring they do not overlap.
Step 4
In a small mixing bowl, combine the fresh lemon juice, extra virgin olive oil, low-sodium soy sauce, and grated ginger. Whisk the ingredients until they are well blended into a smooth dressing.
Step 5
Drizzle the lemon-olive oil mixture evenly over the scallop slices, ensuring each piece is lightly coated.
Step 6
Finely chop the fresh chives and sprinkle them over the scallop sashimi.
Step 7
Thinly slice the radish into paper-thin rounds and place a few on top of the scallops for a crisp, peppery contrast.
Step 8
Sprinkle the black sesame seeds over the entire dish to add a delicate crunch and a toasted aroma.
Step 9
Garnish with microgreens for a boost of freshness and color before serving.
Step 10
Serve immediately as an appetizer or a light dish, ensuring to enjoy the fresh, delicate flavors that are best when served fresh.
