Arctic Char Aguachile With Habanero, Jicama, And Lime Recipe
- 3/4 pound sashimi-grade arctic char fillet, skinned and trimmed of any dark flesh (see note)
- Sea or kosher salt
- 1/2 stemmed and seeded habanero pepper, roughly chopped (see note)
- 3 tablespoons water
- 5 tablespoons fresh juice from 5 limes
- 1/4 cup packed mint leaves (from about 5 large sprigs), roughly chopped
- Freshly ground black pepper
- 1/4 cup peeled and diced jicama
- 1/4 cup thinly sliced red onion
- 2 tablespoons whole coriander seed
- Tostadas and fresh avocado, for serving
- Split fillet lengthwise along natural division, trimming away center line with any sinew or bones. Then slice the fillet halves crosswise into thin strips. Arrange sliced fish on a large plate and sprinkle all over with salt. Cover with plastic and refrigerate for at least 1 hour and up to 2 hours.
- Meanwhile, blend habanero with water in a blender or with an immersion blender until thoroughly blended. Add lime juice and mint and blend until pureed. Season with salt and pepper.
- In a mixing bowl, toss arctic char with habanero-lime marinade, jicama, onion, and coriander seed. Season once more with salt and pepper and serve right away with tostadas and avocado.
