Ingredients
- 1lb shrimp (tilapia, clams, octopus, sea bass, etc.)
- 1 small onion, minced
- 1 clove of garlic, large, minced
- 1 jalapeno (or 1/2 a small habanero, if you dare), minced, seeds and veins removed
- 5-6 nice sprigs of fresh cilantro (coriander), leaves removed from the stems and finely chopped
- 1/4 tsp sea salt
- Fresh squeezed lime juice to cover the above - it should take 5-6 large limes, but buy 8 because this is your cooking medium
- A few grinds of black pepper
Directions
- If using shrimp, peel, de-vein, rinse and drain (other seafood to be prepared according to the basic prep for the product)
- Juice the limes, straining out the seeds and pulp
- Chop the seafood into 1/2" pieces
- Mix all ingredients together well, remove to a sealed storage container
- Chill for 3 hours
- SERVING: This is beautiful in a martini glass, half an avocado, a hollowed out fresh, firm tomato, tortilla chips, or a nice lettuce leaf
- [unless Ed is over, then just surrender a spoon and forget about it]

Amos, I've been looking for an easy Ceviche recipe that can be done at home. This is so fabulous - Beats SOSC (same old shrimp co*cktail) any day, hands down! Thank you, as always for sharing this.

I made this last night for today's lunch and it was just perfect. Thank you for this recipe.
I did chop in two Serrano peppers and at the time of serving I chopped half a Avocado. Perfection in a martini glass. Besides a apple martini. Lol1 reply

I've heard of this recipe but have not really tried. This could be my guide.

Sounds amazing how the heck did I miss it going to try this! Love lime!

Hi, Stacey - Good to hear from you! I'll be anxious to hear how this goes for you. You may also really enjoy the Creole Shrimp Salad I posted - I get huge "not SOSC" positives from diners - it looks great and has the creamy, rather than acidic, profile. Stay in touch!

Hi, Gilli - Tilapia is a pretty common white fish ( even sometimes said to be the 'loaves & fishes' fish from the Bible), not fishy and a medium-firm flesh, somewhat to the sweet side. It is commonly farmed in the US and is not at all expensive. Usually broiled, poached pan-fried. I don't find it a great fish for the grill.

Haven't used octopus or clams before Amos sounds interesting. Thought your friend might throw a small slug of rum in his Ceviche to have that Costa Rican effect. What is tilapia please?
