Ingredients
π§
2 to 3 large red onions
πΏ 1 bunch of fresh cilantro
πΆοΈ 1 large red bell pepper
π¦ 500g shrimp
π 1.5 to 2 kg of fresh white fish fillets, approximately 250 to 300 grams per person
π 1 cup of freshly squeezed lemon juice
π½ 1 cup of corn kernels
π« Olive oil, Bertolli or Colavita
π§ White pepper and salt
Instructions
1- Prepare the Vegetables:
- Thinly slice the red onions and soak them in a bowl of cold water for about 10 minutes to mellow their sharpness, then drain.
- Finely chop the cilantro and dice the red bell pepper, setting both aside.
2- Prepare the Fish:
- Cut the white fish fillets into small, bite-sized cubes.
- Place the fish into a large glass or ceramic bowl, avoiding metal to prevent any reaction with the citrus.
3- Marinate the Fish:
- Pour the freshly squeezed lemon juice over the fish until fully immersed.
- Gently stir to ensure even coating. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for about 20 minutes, allowing the fish to "cook" in the acidic juice.
4- Combine Ingredients:
- Remove the marinated fish from the fridge and drain any excess lemon juice.
- Add the drained onions, chopped cilantro, diced red bell pepper, and corn kernels to the bowl with the fish. Toss everything together gently.
5- Season and Finish:
- Drizzle a moderate amount of olive oil into the mixture for added richness.
- Season with salt and white pepper to taste, tossing again to evenly distribute the flavors.
6- Serve:
- Allow the ceviche to sit for a few more minutes before serving, letting the flavors meld.
- Serve chilled in individual bowls or a large serving dish, garnished with fresh cilantro leaves.
