    Pat salmon dry. Slice on a slight diagonal into 0.25-inch-thick pieces.

  4. Step 4

    Arrange salmon slices on a chilled plate, slightly overlapping. Scatter red onion evenly over the top.

    Pour leche de tigre around and over salmon until it pools slightly. Serve immediately with corn on the side.
