Basic Ceviche

Description

Super light and refreshing. I use the recipe without the fish (reduce the lime juice) as a topper for grilled tuna. Serves 4 as a lunch, 8 as an appetizer.

  • 1 bunch fresh cilantro, chopped

  • ⅓ cup chopped green onion
  • 1 jalapeno pepper, chopped, or to taste
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • salt and ground black pepper to taste

  1. Place fish into a flat dish; cover with lime juice. Chill fish in refrigerator until tender and opaque
  2. at least 3 hours. Drain lime juice.
  3. Mix tomato
  4. cilantro
  5. green bell pepper
  6. green onion
  7. jalapeno pepper
  8. garlic
  9. salt
  10. and pepper in a bowl; add fish and stir. Chill in refrigerator until flavors blend
  11. about 1 hour.
