Fish Crudo Recipe

Thinly sliced raw fish gets a tropical twist with vibrant mango, juicy kiwi, and crunchy jicama in this colorful, refreshing fish crudo. It’s light, bright, and just a little spicy – the kind of dish that feels a bit fancy but couldn’t be easier to make.

Ingredients

  • 8 ounces firm white fish fillets skinless
  • fresh lime for squeezing
  • flaky sea salt for sprinkling
  • 2 tablespoons mango finely diced
  • 2 tablespoons kiwi finely diced
  • 2 tablespoons jicama finely diced
  • cilantro leaves for garnishing
  • extra virgin olive oil for drizzling
  • chili oil for drizzling

Instructions

  1. Slice the fillet lengthwise into two long pieces by following the natural seam of the fish.
  2. Work with one strip at a time and carefully slice very thin, even pieces by angling your knife at a 45° angle.
  3. Lay each piece of fish out on a platter, allowing them to overlap slightly.
  4. Squeeze fresh lime juice all over, then sprinkle with sea salt, being sure to season each and every piece.
  5. Evenly distribute the mango, kiwi and jicama over the fish and around the plate.
  6. Place several cilantro leaves in a decorative pattern on and around the fish.
  7. Sprinkle with a little more sea salt, then drizzle little bits of olive oil and chile oil around the edges. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • For the cleanest, most delicate slices, use a razor-sharp knife and keep the fish very cold or partially frozen.
  • Always remove the bloodline and any ragged edges before slicing to ensure a pristine presentation and clean flavor.
  • Chill your serving platter ahead of time to keep the crudo as fresh and cool as possible.
  • Season each slice evenly with sea salt and lime juice for a balanced bite every time.
  • Prepare all toppings in advance and assemble just before serving to maintain texture and temperature.
