Super light and refreshing. I use the recipe without the fish (reduce the lime juice) as a topper for grilled tuna. Serves 4 as a lunch, 8 as an appetizer.

Used halibut. The only change I made was to use about 1/4 of a yellow onion. Delicious! Read More

The flavor of the marinated fish was overwhelmed by the garlic onion and cilantro. I like my ceviche less cluttered. Read More

I added some finely diced cucumber subbed red bell pepper for green and gave it a squeezeof fresh lemon juice. I served these with Triscuit Wasabi and Soy Thin Crisps. They were a good match for the ceviche'. I used flounder. Can't wait to do this with shrimp and scallops. Read More

This stuff is fantastic. I don't know if I got zealous with a few of the spices or not but this turned out refreshing spicy and full-flavored. Just fantastic. I'm not a fan of jalapenos but the one pepper I put in this chopped finely added an excellent level of heat--subtle to start and building gently. Read More
