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. Ingredients:
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 |
Directions:
1. 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. |
