Halibut Ceviche
Halibut Ceviche features sushi-grade halibut marinated in fresh lime juice until 'cooked' through, combined with diced avocado, tomato, red onion, jalapeño, and fresh cilantro. The acid gently firms the fish while the vegetables add freshness, creaminess, and a touch of heat. This ceviche delivers a bright, balanced flavor and a firm yet tender texture suitable for light appetizers or summer meals.

Ingredients
- 1 pound halibut cubed, sushi-grade
- 1.5 cups lime juice fresh
- 1/2 tsp salt to taste, sea salt
- 1 large avocado peeled and diced
- 2 tomato seeded and diced, vine-ripened
- 1/3 cup red onion finely chopped
- 1 jalapeño seeded and finely chopped
- 1/2 cup cilantro chopped, fresh
Instructions
- Chop the halibut into bite sized pieces and place in a glass or stainless steel mixing bowl. Sprinkle with sea salt and pour in the lime juice (add more lime juice if the fish isn’t completely submerged). Stir well, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 4 hours, stirring occasionally, or until fish is completely white and “cooked” through.
- Strain the halibut, discarding the lime juice. Place the halibut in a serving bowl.
- Add the tomato, avocado, red onion, jalapeno and cilantro to the mixing bowl and gently toss to combine. Add sea salt to taste. Serve as is, or with toasted bread.
