What Is Ceviche And Why We Use Halibut In This Recipe!
If you’ve tried shrimp ceviche, you’re sure to love this halibut version. The halibut “cooks” in fresh lime juice for 1 hour and it’s ready to serve with plenty of tortilla chips for dipping.
Ceviche is a dish that originates from Latin America, particularly from countries such has Peru, Ecuador, and Colombia. It is typically made with fresh raw seafood, such as fish or shrimp, which is marinated in citrus juice (usually lime or lemon) and seasoned with various spices and herbs.
The acid in the citrus juice helps to "cook" the seafood, so it becomes firm and opaque without the need for heat. The ceviche is typically served cold, often with chopped onions, tomatoes, and cilantro, and can be enjoyed as a snack or a main course.
Ceviche is a popular dish that is enjoyed all over Latin America and has become increasingly popular in other parts of the world as well. It is a refreshing and flavorful dish that is perfect for warm weather and can be made in many different variations.
Learn About Our Halibut!
Here at Sizzlefish, our halibut is wild caught in the pristine waters of Southeast Alaska, off Baranof Island. Halibut is carefully selected to yield perfectly tender, flaky fillet that is mild in flavor. Because halibut has a mild flavor, it doesn’t overpower the other ingredients in the ceviche.
The fillets are individually packaged in both 4- and 6-ounce portions. Alaskan halibut is naturally lean and loaded with protein. Halibut is a terrific source of immune-system supporting vitamin-D.
Why We Use Mangoes In This Recipe And The Health Benefits.
