Step 2

In a large skillet cook fish cubes in hot olive oil over medium-high heat for 3 to 5 minutes or until browned on all sides and fish flakes easily when tested with a fork, but is still slightly pink in the center. Remove from skillet; let cool slightly. Cut fish into slices.
Step 3

To serve, place Fried Wonton Chips on a serving platter. Top with each chip with greens, fish slices, Wasabi Aioli, and pickled ginger, if you like. Serve immediately. Pass any remaining Wasabi Aioli. Makes 4 appetizer servings.
