Simple Peruvian Ceviche

Total Time: 30 mins Preparation Time: 30 mins

Ingredients

• Servings: 6
• 2 lbs tilapia fillets or 2 lbs other firm fish fillets, cubed
• 8 -10 garlic cloves, chopped
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 teaspoons fresh cilantro, chopped
• 1 habanero pepper, seeded and chopped (or real peruvian aji amarillo, if you can find it)
• 8 -12 limes, freshly squeezed and strained to remove pulp, enough to cover fish
• 1 red onion, thinly sliced and rinsed

Recipe

• 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 presses 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.
