Notes

  • Serves 4 as a main dish and 8-10 as a snack or appetizer. 
  • Marinate and store ceviche in a non-reactive bowl or container. Use glass, stainless steel or ceramic to avoid a reaction with the materials and the acidic citrus juices. 
  • If you don't want to make your own plantain chips, you can purchase them or use corn nuts or popcorn instead!
