  • 1/2 cup fresh coriander ( cilantro)

Directions
  1. Add the zest of 1 lime to a non-reactive (glass or plastic) bowl.
  2. roll each lime around on a hard surface while applying pressure with your hands so that they'll yield the most juice.
  3. Slice limes in half
  4. squeeze them out into a measuring cup and set aside.
  5. Prepare your onions onions and peppers by dicing them neatly. Chop the cilantro
  6. set aside.
  7. Cut filet in half... tilapia, flounder, cod...
  8. using the sharpest knife
  9. Cut the fish down again into thin slices.
  10. Cut the scallops, down widthwise and into thin slices
  11. Clean the shrimp.
  12. cut them in half (12 pieces)
  13. put the halibut, scallops and shrimp into the zest.
  14. add the remainder of your ingredients including the lime juice, ensuring you have enough juice to cover everything up.
  15. stir
  16. cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 18-24 hours,
  17. stir up the mixture every few hours
  18. The next day, your ceviche will be ready. Strain what you want to serve from the lime juice mixture and rinse it so that it won't taste overpoweringly limey
  19. serve.

As we are so close to the Gulf.. about 20 miles as the crow flies! And we have our own limes... we make this a lot.. Add some homemade tortilla chips.. a frosty Margarita... Now that is living! I like the lime left on mine.. But I also eat lime and salt!!!


Amen on the Margarita, the only time I will have one is with this dish. Living so far inland there is only one restaurant worth a drive that I have had this. Haven;t endeavored to make my own yet.
