Ceviche is one of Peru’s most iconic dishes, celebrated for its vibrant flavors and refreshing qualities. This traditional dish, made with fresh seafood, citrus juices, and a blend of local spices, captures the essence of Peruvian cuisine. With Sooner’s Delivery, you can easily gather all the ingredients needed to bring a taste of Peru to your kitchen.
Ingredients:
- 1 lb of fresh fish fillets (such as sea bass or tilapia) from Sooner’s Delivery
- 1 red onion, thinly sliced
- 1-2 fresh aji amarillo peppers (yellow chili), finely chopped (available at Sooner’s)
- 1-2 cloves of garlic, minced
- 1/2 cup of freshly squeezed lime juice (from Sooner’s fresh produce section)
- 1/2 cup of freshly squeezed lemon juice
- 1/4 cup of cilantro, chopped
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Sweet potatoes, boiled and sliced (also available at Sooner’s)
- Corn on the cob, boiled and cut into rounds
- Lettuce leaves for serving
Instructions:
- Prepare the Fish:
- Start by cutting the fresh fish fillets into bite-sized cubes. Ensure the fish is fresh and cold for the best texture and flavor.
- Marinate the Fish:
- In a large bowl, mix the fish cubes with the freshly squeezed lime and lemon juices. The acidity of the citrus will “cook” the fish by firming up the texture and turning it opaque.
- Add the minced garlic, finely chopped aji amarillo, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Stir gently to combine, ensuring the fish is evenly coated with the marinade.
- Cover the bowl and let the fish marinate in the refrigerator for about 15-20 minutes.
- Add the Onions and Cilantro:
- After marinating, add the thinly sliced red onions and chopped cilantro to the bowl. Toss everything together gently.
- Serve the Ceviche:
- Arrange the lettuce leaves on a serving platter and spoon the ceviche onto the lettuce.
- Garnish with slices of boiled sweet potato and corn rounds for a traditional Peruvian touch.
- Enjoy:
- Serve the ceviche immediately for the freshest taste, and enjoy a refreshing, zesty dish that brings the flavors of Peru to your table.
