Step 1
Place the fish on a cutting board. Using a sharp knife, slice the fish against the grain into 1/8-inch-thick slices—thin enough to see through slightly. Lay each slice flat on a chilled serving plate.
Step 2
Juice 2 limes into a small bowl, measuring out 0.25 cup of juice. Add the chopped ají peppers, 0.5 cup fish stock, and 0.5 teaspoon salt; stir until uniform.
Step 3
Cut the third lime in half. Using a microplane or fine grater, zest both halves directly over a small bowl, capturing all the yellow outer skin.
Step 4
Pour the lime-ají broth evenly over the fish slices, coating each piece and pooling around them on the plate—do not stir or move the fish.
Step 5
Scatter the lime zest and fresh cilantro over the top in a thin, even layer. Let the dish rest on the counter for 2 minutes before serving.
