Ingredients

• 300 grams Fresh kingfish fillet
• 1 whole Lemon
• 1 whole Lime
• 2 cm piece Fresh ginger
• 2 tablespoons Coconut aminos
• 1 tablespoon Extra virgin olive oil
• 0.5 teaspoon Sea salt
• 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro (coriander)
• 1 small Chili pepper
• 1 tablespoon Sesame seeds

Directions

Step 1

Start by ensuring the kingfish is at its freshest. Check for a moist appearance and clean smell. Pat the fish dry with paper towels.

Step 2

Using a sharp knife, slice the kingfish fillet against the grain into thin slices, approximately 5mm thick. Arrange the slices neatly on a serving platter.

Step 3

Zest the lemon and lime separately and set aside. Cut the lemon and lime in half and squeeze the juices into a small bowl.

Step 4

Peel the ginger and finely grate it into the citrus juice that you reserved.

Step 5

Add the coconut aminos, extra virgin olive oil, and sea salt to the ginger-citrus mixture. Whisk together until well combined, creating a marinade dressing.

Step 6

Finely chop the fresh cilantro and slice the chili pepper thinly, removing seeds if you prefer less heat.

Step 7

Sprinkle the citrus zest over the sashimi slices. Drizzle the marinade dressing evenly over the fish.

Step 8

Garnish the sashimi with chopped cilantro and chili slices. Sprinkle sesame seeds on top for a hint of nutty flavor.

Step 9

Allow the sashimi to marinate for a quick 5 minutes to absorb flavors then serve immediately as an appetizer or light meal.
