Xiao Wan's Seared Black Cod

I thought I was going to fix something else, but some fresh, enticing looking, Black Cod in the market seduced me to make this...

Ingredients:
  • Fresh sliced lemon
  • 1 Tbsp, Olive oil
  • Fresh Black Cod fish fillets, sliced
  • 1 Fresh scallion, remove white and julienne green part
  • Daikon radish, julienne less than a handful
  • Sesame seeds
  • Sea Salt
  • ground black/white pepper, just a pinch (or enough to coat skillet)
  • ground paprika (optional)
Xiao Wan's Spicy Mayo:
  • 2 tbsp Mayonnaise
  • 4 tsp Sriracha Sauce
  • A few drops of Sesame Oil
  • A pinch of ground Black/white Pepper
Directions:
In a skillet, on high heat, add olive oil. Once the oil is hot, sprinkle the salt & pepper evenly over the skillet and turn the heat off. Immediately place the black cod pieces into the skillet and quickly flip each piece so they are lightly seared on each side. Transfer the fish to a serving plate, over some fresh lemon slices. Top with scallions, daikon radish, and sprinkle with sesame seeds and paprika (optional.) Finally, squeeze some lemon juice and drizzle with Xiao Wan's Spicy Mayo. Bon Appetit!

If you'd like, serve with pickled ginger, wasabi, and soy sauce.
