Why This Recipe Stands Out

Bright, light, and full of fresh flavors. The combination of tender fish and sweet mango makes it both refreshing and satisfying. It’s perfect for warm days or when you want something healthy and quick to prepare.

Kitchen Tips

- Use the freshest fish possible to ensure safety and the best taste.
- Marinate the fish just long enough to “cook” it in the citrus juice, usually about 15-20 minutes.
- Keep the ceviche chilled before serving to maintain its refreshing quality.

Step 1

Tos the cubed halibut, lime and lemon juices, tequila, minced jalapeno, and half of the diced mango into a non-metallic bowl. Cover it up and pop it in the fridge for about an hour and a half to let the flavors meld and the fish “cook” in the citrus.

Step 2

Once that’s ready, stir in the green pepper along with the sweet and red onions. Give everything a good mix, cover again, and chill for another 30 minutes to let those veggies soften a bit and blend in.

Step 3

Finally, gently fold in the rest of the mango, along with some fresh cilantro and parsley. Taste it and add salt as needed before serving. It’s best enjoyed chilled and fresh!

Serving Tips

Serve with crispy tortilla chips or on a bed of leafy greens. A side of avocado slices or a light salad can complement the bright flavors well. It also pairs nicely with a cold white wine or a citrusy cocktail.

Leftover Storage Guide

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Consume within 24 hours for the best texture and freshness. Avoid freezing, as the fish texture will change once thawed.
