Ingredients

• 300 grams sushi-grade ahi tuna
• 120 milliliters lime juice
• 60 milliliters lemon juice
• 30 milliliters orange juice
• 0.5 medium (thinly sliced) red onion
• 1 small (seeded and finely diced) jalapeño pepper
• 3 tablespoons (chopped) cilantro leaves
• 1 medium (diced) avocado
• 0.5 teaspoons sea salt
• 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 100 grams (optional, for serving) tortilla chips

Directions

Step 1

Cut the sushi-grade ahi tuna into small, bite-sized cubes about 1/2 inch in size. Place the tuna in a medium glass or ceramic bowl.

Step 2

Add the fresh lime juice, lemon juice, and orange juice to the bowl, ensuring the tuna is fully submerged in the citrus mixture. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 10-15 minutes to lightly 'cook' the tuna in the acid.

Step 3

While the tuna marinates, thinly slice the red onion, finely dice the jalapeño pepper, and chop the cilantro leaves. Set these aside.

Step 4

After marination, remove the tuna from the refrigerator and drain off most of the citrus juice, leaving a small amount for flavor.

Step 5

Add the sliced red onion, diced jalapeño, chopped cilantro, and olive oil to the bowl with the tuna. Gently toss to combine.

Step 6

Season the mixture with sea salt and black pepper to taste, adjusting as needed.

Step 7

Gently fold in the diced avocado, being careful not to mash it, to retain its texture.

Step 8

Transfer the ceviche to a serving bowl or individual cups. Serve immediately with tortilla chips on the side, if desired.
