Ceviche Recipe

Ceviche is a popular dish in Latin American cuisine, particularly in Peru, where it is considered a national dish. It is made from fresh raw fish or seafood marinated in citrus juices, typically lemon or lime, along with various seasonings such as onions, cilantro, and chili peppers. The acid in the citrus juice “cooks” the fish, giving it a firm texture and a tangy flavor. Ceviche is often served as an appetizer or a light meal.

• Ingredients:

• Preparation:

1. In a large bowl, combine the fish, lime juice, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or until the fish is opaque and “cooked” by the acid.
2. Drain the excess liquid from the fish and add the red onion, cherry tomatoes, cilantro, and jalapeño pepper. Toss to combine.
3. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
4. Serve the ceviche chilled, topped with diced avocado, and accompanied by tortilla chips.
