Ingredients

• 1 pound fresh white fish (such as tilapia or snapper), skinned and deboned
• 6 whole limes, juiced
• 1 whole lemon, juiced
• 1 whole orange, juiced
• 1 medium red onion, finely diced
• 1 large tomato, chopped
• 1 medium cucumber, peeled and chopped
• 1 small jalapeño pepper, seeded and finely chopped
• 1 large avocado, diced
• 0.5 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
• 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Begin by slicing the fish into small, bite-size pieces, approximately 1/2-inch cubes, and place them in a glass or ceramic bowl.

Step 2

Pour the lime, lemon, and orange juice over the fish, ensuring the fish pieces are completely submerged. The acidity of the citrus juices will 'cook' the fish.

Step 3

Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1 to 2 hours, stirring occasionally until the fish turns opaque and firms up.

Step 4

While the fish is marinating, prepare the vegetables and other ingredients. Finely dice the red onion, chop the tomato and cucumber, seed and finely chop the jalapeño, and dice the avocado.

Step 5

Once the fish is ready, drain off excess citrus juice, reserving about 1/4 cup for added flavor.

Step 6

Combine the fish with the prepared red onion, tomato, cucumber, jalapeño, avocado, and cilantro.

Step 7

Add the reserved citrus juice, olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Gently toss all ingredients together until well mixed.

Step 8

Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.

Step 9

Serve the ceviche in bowls or on plates, and enjoy immediately for the freshest taste.
