Ingredients

  • 1 teaspoon jalapeño pepper pulp (super finely grated)
  • ¼ teaspoon chili paste
  • tablespoons seasoned rice vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon Mandarin orange juice juice (or other orange juice you love)
  • ½ teaspoon granulated sugar
  • teaspoons grapeseed oil
  • 5 to 6 ounces sushi grade Yellowtail, very thinly sliced
  • 2 Mandarin oranges or another orange you love, peeled and sliced horizontally, into about ¼-inch rounds

Instructions

  • Use a fine grater to purée the jalapeño into pulp, keeping the seeds out. (Ideally use a microplane zester.)
  • In a small bowl, combine the jalapeño, chili paste, vinegar, orange juice and sugar. Then whisk in the oil.
  • Add the Yellowtail to the marinade, cover tightly, and let it marinate in the refrigerator for about 15 minutes.
  • Arrange the Yellowtail and orange slices on two plates and drizzle with any remaining marinade.
