1
Prepare the Seafood
If using shrimp, peel and devein the shrimp. If using tilapia, cut the fish into small cubes. Rinse under cold water and pat dry.
2
Marinate the Seafood
Place the prepared shrimp or tilapia in a glass bowl. Pour fresh lime juice over the seafood until completely submerged. Add salt and black pepper. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes to 1 hour until the seafood is opaque and 'cooked' by the lime juice.

3
Chop Vegetables
While the seafood is marinating, finely chop the red onion, tomato, and cilantro. Set aside.
4
Combine Ingredients
Once the seafood is marinated, drain a little of the lime juice if desired, then add the chopped onion, tomato, and cilantro to the bowl. Mix gently to combine all ingredients.

5
Prepare Avocado
Slice the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop out the flesh. Cut into slices or cubes.
6
Plate the Ceviche
Serve the ceviche in individual bowls or on a large platter. Top with avocado slices or cubes. Optionally, garnish with extra cilantro.
