How to prepare it step by step?
Preparation
- Cut the white fish and shrimp into small, uniform cubes to ensure even marination.
- Squeeze the lemons and pour the juice over the fish and shrimp, ensuring they are fully submerged. The lemon juice is crucial for 'cooking' the seafood. Refrigerate for 15-20 minutes.
- Finely chop the red onion and red chili. For a milder ceviche, remove the chili seeds.
- After marinating, add the onion and chili to the ceviche, along with a generous handful of chopped fresh cilantro. The cilantro adds a refreshing aroma and balances the lemon's acidity.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste. Drizzle a touch of olive oil for added richness and flavor.
- Gently mix all ingredients, ensuring the fish and shrimp are well infused with the lemon juice, onion, and cilantro flavors.
- Serve the ceviche very cold, accompanied by corn toast, tortilla chips, or crackers. This dish is a refreshing appetizer for any occasion.
