Ceviche Al Estilo Colombiano (colombian-style Ceviche)

Ingredients

  • 1 lb fresh white fish, such as sea bass or flounder, cut into small cubes
  • 1 cup fresh lime juice
  • 1 red onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 bell pepper, diced
  • 1 tomato, diced
  • 1/2 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
  • 1 jalapeño, seeded and finely chopped
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 avocado, diced (optional, for serving)

  2. Once the fish is ready, add the red onion, bell pepper, tomato, cilantro, and jalapeño to the bowl. Season with salt and pepper, and gently toss to combine.
  3. Refrigerate the ceviche for an additional 10-15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
  4. Serve the ceviche in individual bowls, topped with diced avocado if desired. Accompany with crackers or tortilla chips.
