It is typically made with raw fish or seafood that is marinated in citrus juice, such as lime or lemon juice, along with other flavorful ingredients. The acid in the citrus juice cooks the fish, resulting in a tender and flavorful dish.
Ingredients: – 1 pound of fresh white fish (such as tilapia, snapper, or cod), cut into small pieces – 1 cup of freshly squeezed lime juice – 1 small red onion, finely sliced – 1 jalapeño pepper, finely chopped – 1 ripe tomato, chopped – 1 avocado, diced – 1/4 cup of fresh cilantro, chopped – Salt and pepper to taste – Tostadas or tortilla chips for serving
Tips: – Use fresh, high-quality fish for the best results. – Be sure to remove any bones or skin from the fish before marinating it in the lime juice. – The longer you marinate the fish in the lime juice, the more “cooked” it will become. However, be careful not to marinate it for too long, as the fish may become tough and chewy.
