Smoked Salmon Aguachile Verde

Aguachile, Spanish for "chili water", is a Mexican dish which typically uses shrimp. In this rendition, the shrimp is replaced with Acme Smoked Fish smoked salmon, but traditional elements such as chili peppers, lime juice, cilantro, and crunchy fresh vegetables remain. Aquachile, similar to ceviche, originated in the coastal regions of the Mexican state of Sinaloa. Acme's aguachile recipe was created with the help of Chef Maylin Chávez and Chef's Roll.

Directions

For the Aguachile Verde: Combine all the aguachile ingredients in a blender and season to taste. Blend and set aside.

To Plate: Pour the aguachile in a wide bowl. Alternate slices of smoked salmon and cucumber in a bowed line across the bowl. Garnish with diced purple radish and white sesame seeds.
