Recipe: Ceviche!

We are doing South American countries in my International culinary class and realized what a great ddish ceviche actually is! yummy, protien rich, and simple to prepare! heres the recipe we used but you can ajdust by making it more or less spicy using more or less jalapenos.

 2

lbs of mixed seafood like tilapia fillet

 or other firm white fish fillet

, shrimp or scallops,cubed

  • 8-10 

    cloves garlic

    , chopped


  • teaspoon salt

  • 1/2 

    teaspoon black pepper


  • teaspoons fresh cilantro

    , chopped

  • 1

    habanero pepper

    , seeded and chopped

  • 8-12

    limes

    , freshly squeezed and strained to remove pulp,enough to cover fish

  • 1

    red onion

    , thinly sliced and rinsed

    1. Combine all ingredients except red onion and mix well.
    2. Place red onion on top and let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2-3 hours before serving.
    3. Before serving, mix well and serve with lettuce, corn, avocado or other cold salad vegetables on the side.
    4. It is important to use a juicer that squeezes the juice out of the limes, not one that will tear the membrane of the lime sections since this will make the lime juice bitter.
