Ceviche Preparation

Prepare the Fish

Cut the fresh fish into small, bite-sized cubes, about 1/2 inch in size. Place the fish in a mixing bowl.

Cure the Fish

Pour the fresh lime and lemon juice over the fish cubes. Make sure the fish is fully submerged in the citrus juices. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to 1 hour, or until the fish appears opaque.

Mixing Ingredients

Add Vegetables and Spices

After the fish is cured, remove it from the refrigerator. Add the thinly sliced red onion, chopped cilantro, finely chopped jalapeño, salt, and black pepper to the bowl. Gently mix all the ingredients together until well combined.
