Juicy and Spicy Ceviche
This ceviche is a beautiful medley of fresh fish, zesty citrus, and a kick of spice. It’s not only delicious but also easy to make, making it the perfect dish for any gathering.
Ingredients
- 1 lb fresh firm white fish (like cod or halibut), diced
- Juice of 4 limes
- Juice of 1 lemon
- 1 medium red onion, finely chopped
- 1-2 jalapeños, seeded and minced (adjust based on spice preference)
- 1 cup diced tomatoes
- 1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Optional: avocado slices for garnish
Instructions
- In a glass or ceramic bowl, combine the diced fish with lime and lemon juice. Make sure the fish is completely immersed in the juice. This is what ‘cooks’ the fish in ceviche!
- Add the chopped red onion and minced jalapeños to the fish mixture. Stir well to combine.
- Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, allowing the fish to marinate and ‘cook’ in the citrus juices.
- After the marination period, add the diced tomatoes and chopped cilantro to the mixture. Gently toss everything together.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste. Adjust the seasoning according to your preference.
- If desired, serve the ceviche with slices of avocado on top for added creaminess.
This Juicy and Spicy Ceviche is best enjoyed fresh. Serve it chilled in small bowls or on crispy tortilla chips for a delightful appetizer. Enjoy this delightful dish that’s packed with flavor and is sure to impress anyone who takes a bite!
