How to Make Ceviche Fish And Or Shrimp

  1. Finely dice 1 pound of your choice of fish (such as snapper, sea bass, or cod) or shrimp, ensuring all pieces are roughly the same size.
  2. In a large glass bowl, combine the diced fish/shrimp with 1 cup freshly squeezed lime juice. Ensure the seafood is fully submerged in the lime juice.
  3. Add 1/2 cup finely chopped red onion, 1/2 cup chopped cilantro, 1 jalapeño pepper, finely minced (remove seeds for less heat), and 1/4 cup chopped cucumber.
  4. Stir gently to combine all ingredients.
  5. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 2-3 hours, or until the seafood is opaque and cooked through. The cooking time may vary depending on the type of seafood and its thickness.
  6. Once the ceviche is cooked, taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Add salt and pepper to taste.
  7. Gently stir before serving.
  8. Serve immediately with tortilla chips, or for an elegant presentation, serve over slices of ripe avocado. You can also add other toppings like avocado slices, extra cilantro, or a squeeze of lime.
