Ingredients

• 250 grams fresh salmon fillet
• 1 whole lemon
• 1 whole orange
• 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
• 0.5 teaspoon sea salt
• 0.25 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper
• 2 tablespoons fresh dill
• 0.5 whole small red chili
• 30 grams microgreens

Directions

Step 1

Start by placing the fresh salmon fillet in the freezer for about 15 minutes. This makes slicing easier.

Step 2

While the salmon is firming up, zest and juice the lemon. Set the zest aside for garnish, and use the juice for seasoning.

Step 3

Peel the orange and segment it, ensuring there is no pith. Set aside the segments for garnish.

Step 4

Remove the salmon from the freezer, and using a sharp knife, thinly slice it against the grain into roughly 3mm (1/8 inch) thick pieces.

Step 5

Arrange the salmon slices evenly on a large serving plate.

Step 6

Drizzle the lemon juice and 1 tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil over the salmon.

Step 7

Sprinkle the sea salt and freshly cracked black pepper evenly over the fish.

Step 8

Finely slice the red chili, removing seeds if less heat is desired, and sprinkle over the salmon.

Step 9

Scatter the orange segments and a generous pinch of lemon zest over the salmon pieces.

Step 10

Finely chop the fresh dill and sprinkle it evenly over the dish.

Step 11

Finish with an additional drizzle of olive oil and scatter microgreens on top for a pop of color and freshness.

Step 12

Serve immediately for best taste and texture, offering additional salt and pepper on the side if needed.
