Method

Preparation of Seafood

  1. 1

    Dice the Fish

    Cut the fresh fish into small, bite-sized cubes and place in a glass or ceramic bowl.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Shrimp

    In a separate pot, bring water to a boil and add the shrimp. Cook for 2-3 minutes until they turn pink. Drain and chop into small pieces, then add to the bowl with the fish.

Marinating

  1. 3

    Add Citrus Juices

    Squeeze the juice of limes and lemon over the fish and shrimp mixture, ensuring all pieces are well coated. The citrus will 'cook' the seafood.

  2. 4

    Refrigerate

    Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes to 1 hour, allowing the seafood to marinate.

Mixing Ingredients

  1. 5

    Add Vegetables

    After marinating, add the chopped red onion, jalapeño, cilantro, and diced tomato to the seafood mixture.

  2. 6

    Season the Ceviche

    Sprinkle salt and black pepper over the mixture. Drizzle with olive oil and gently stir to combine all ingredients without breaking the fish.

Serving

  1. 7

    Chill Before Serving

    Let the ceviche chill in the refrigerator for an additional 10-15 minutes before serving for best flavor.

  2. 8

    Serve

    Serve the ceviche in small bowls or on a bed of lettuce. Garnish with extra cilantro if desired.
