Want a fresh side dish (or main dish) packed with nutrients and goodness?
Ceviche is it.
Ceviche, also cebiche, seviche, or sebiche, is a seafood dish originating in Peru, typically made from fresh raw fish cured in citrus juices, such as lemon or lime, with fresh veggies and hits of spice.
My recipe is for the non-spicy fans BUT you can add chili peppers, tapaito, etc. I have also recipes that add clamato juice.
This recipe is packed with flavor with the juice of lime, cilantro, and shrimp.
To get the full flavor, you need to let it marinade in the refrigerator for at least 3 hours.
