Tilapia Carpaccio

Ingredients

• 2 fresh tilapia fillets
• Juice of 2 limes
• 2 tbsp finely chopped red onion
• Fresh basil leaves
• 2 tbsp La Favorita Oliva (Olive) Oil
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 2 tbsp capers

Directions

1. Carefully wash and dry 2 fresh tilapia fillets.
2. Wrap the fillets in plastic wrap and put them in the freezer for 1 hour so they firm up.
3. Take the fillets out of the freezer and, with a sharp knife, slice them very thinly.
4. Arrange the tilapia slices on a large plate, making sure they are spread out flat.
5. Drizzle the juice of 2 limes over the tilapia slices to marinate them.
6. Season the tilapia slices with salt and pepper to taste.
7. Scatter 2 tbsp of capers and 2 tbsp of finely chopped red onion over the tilapia slices.
8. Drizzle 2 tbsp of La Favorita Oliva Oil over the carpaccio.
9. Let the carpaccio rest in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes so the flavors blend and the tilapia marinates.
10. Serve the Tilapia Carpaccio cold and garnish with fresh basil leaves.
