Ceviche - Fish And/Or Shrimp image

Healthy and terribly yummy. I always love sampling ceviche at farmers' markets, but can't justify spending $6 - $8 for a small tub. Making it yourself at home is not difficult, and much more budget-friendly.

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 3/4 lbs tilapia fillets (chopped into small cubes. or 1 3/4 lbs substitute shrimp or 1 3/4 lbs use a combination of fish and ) or 1 3/4 lbs other white fish (chopped into small cubes. or 1 3/4 lbs substitute shrimp or 1 3/4 lbs use a combination of fish and )
2 tablespoons garlic, chopped
2 peeled shallots, finely chopped
2 tablespoons green onions, chopped (both white and green parts)
2 seeded roma tomatoes, chopped
1 tablespoon cilantro leaf, chopped
1 1/2 tablespoons hot sauce
1/2 jalapeno pepper, finely chopped
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/2 cup fresh lime juice

Steps:

  • Combine all ingredients in a large bowl. Mix thoroughly. Store in a covered glass or plastic container, lime juice should cover all ingredients; if not, add more lime juice. Refrigerate for 2-3 hours. When done, the seafood should be totally opaque. Stir before serving. Serve with tortilla chips or (my favorite way) chop avocado and place in a dish. Spoon ceviche on top of avocado.
