Description
Discover the ultimate salmon ceviche ! Fresh sushi-grade salmon, zesty lime juice, and bold flavors make this dish a summer favorite.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound fresh salmon, skinned and cut into small cubes
- 1 cup freshly squeezed lime juice (about 8–10 limes)
- 1 small red onion, thinly sliced
- 1 medium tomato, finely diced
- 1 jalapeño pepper, finely chopped (remove seeds for less heat)
- 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
- 1 avocado, diced
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
- Tortilla chips, for serving (optional)
Instructions
- Place the cubed salmon in a large glass bowl. Pour the freshly squeezed lime juice over the salmon, ensuring it’s completely submerged. Cover and refrigerate for 1-2 hours, stirring occasionally, until the salmon turns opaque.
- Once the salmon is “cooked” in the lime juice, drain off most of the liquid, leaving just a small amount to retain the flavor.
- Add the red onion, tomato, jalapeño, and cilantro to the salmon. Gently mix to combine.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Just before serving, fold in the diced avocado for a creamy texture.
- Serve immediately with tortilla chips, if desired.
