Ingredients
- 1 lb fresh white fish (snapper, sea bass, or tilapia)
- 1 cup fresh lime juice
- 0.25 cup fresh lemon juice
- 0.5 red onion, thinly sliced
- 1 jalapeño, finely chopped and seeds removed
- 2 Roma tomatoes, diced
- 0.25 cup cilantro, chopped
- 1 avocado, diced
- 0.5 tsp ground black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Rinse the fish under cold water, then pat dry with paper towels. Cut the fish into small, uniform cubes, about 1/2 inch in size.
Step 2
In a large glass or ceramic bowl, combine the lime juice and lemon juice.
Step 3
Add the fish cubes to the citrus juice mixture, ensuring that all pieces are submerged. Gently stir with a spoon to coat the fish evenly.
Step 4
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for about 30 minutes to 1 hour, or until the fish appears opaque and is firm to the touch.
Step 5
Once the fish is properly marinated, drain the fish from the citrus juices while retaining about 2 tablespoons of the juice in the bowl.
Step 6
Add the sliced red onion, chopped jalapeño, diced tomatoes, and cilantro to the fish, and gently stir to combine.
Step 7
Season the ceviche with ground black pepper, stirring once more to ensure even distribution of all ingredients.
Step 8
Just before serving, fold in the diced avocado carefully to avoid mashing it.
Step 9
Serve the ceviche in individual bowls or martini glasses for an elegant presentation. Optionally, you can serve it with tortilla chips or lettuce wraps.
