Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound fresh firm white fish (mahi-mahi, snapper, or tilapia), cut into small cubes
  • 1 large ripe mango, peeled and diced
  • 1 medium ripe avocado, diced
  • ½ cup (120 ml) freshly squeezed lime juice
  • ½ small red onion, finely diced
  • ¼ cup (15 g) fresh cilantro, chopped
  • 1 small jalapeño, seeded and minced (optional)
  • Salt, to taste
  • Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • 1 tablespoon (15 ml) extra virgin olive oil
  • Crispy tortilla chips (homemade or store-bought) for serving

Instructions

  1. Rinse and pat dry 1 pound of fresh white fish. Cut into small, uniform cubes about ½ inch for even curing.
  2. Place the fish cubes in a glass mixing bowl. Pour in ½ cup freshly squeezed lime juice, ensuring the fish is mostly submerged. Cover tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 20-30 minutes until the fish turns opaque and firms up.
  3. While the fish marinates, finely dice the mango and avocado. Finely chop the red onion, cilantro, and mince the jalapeño if using.
  4. Drain some of the excess lime juice from the fish (leave a bit for flavor). Gently fold in the mango, avocado, red onion, cilantro, and jalapeño.
  5. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil and season with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
  6. Let the mixture sit for 5-10 minutes at room temperature to allow flavors to meld.
  7. Spoon the ceviche into shallow bowls or glasses and serve immediately with crispy tortilla chips on the side.

Notes

Do not marinate the fish too long to avoid toughness. Fold avocado gently to keep its texture. Keep ceviche chilled until serving. Homemade tortilla chips can be fried or baked for best crunch.
