Ingredients

  • 1 pound fresh white fish (such as sea bass or sole), skinless and boneless
  • 1 cup lime juice
  • 0.5 cup lemon juice
  • 0.5 cup red onion, finely chopped
  • 0.25 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
  • 1 medium jalapeño, seeds removed and finely chopped
  • 1 large avocado, diced
  • 1 medium tomato, diced
  • 1 half cucumber, peeled, seeded, and diced
  • 0.5 teaspoon salt
  • 0.25 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Begin by cutting the white fish into small, bite-sized pieces and place them in a large glass bowl.

Step 2

Pour the lime juice and lemon juice over the fish pieces, ensuring they are fully submerged in the citrus juices.

Step 3

Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 45 minutes to 1 hour until the fish turns opaque and 'cooks' in the citrus juices.

Step 4

While the fish is marinating, prepare the vegetables: finely chop the red onion, chop the cilantro, and dice the tomato, cucumber, and avocado.

Step 5

Once the fish is ready, carefully drain the excess citrus juice from the bowl, while retaining the fish pieces.

Step 6

Add the red onion, cilantro, jalapeño, tomato, cucumber, and avocado to the marinated fish.

Step 7

Season the mixture with salt and black pepper, gently tossing everything together to combine flavors.

Step 8

Serve the ceviche immediately chilled, optionally garnished with extra cilantro or lime wedges. Enjoy as a standalone entrée or as an appetizer with low-carb tortilla chips.
