I have made this several times, always to raves. It is inexpensive compared to other seafood you can use but the results are still amazing.

How To Make tilapia ceviche
-
Step 1Dice tilapia into small chunks, place in ziploc bag, and squeeze 2 limes and all lemons, along with some salt and pepper into bag.
-
Step 2Thoroughly massage juice with fish chunks and then refrigerate. Keep turning/massaging fish every half hour or so for about 3 hours. This is how you are "cooking" the fish.
-
Step 3Chop/dice all vegetables/herbs and set aside, waiting for fish to "cook"
-
Step 4Once fish is ready, strain the juice out and then combine with the vegetables/herbs.
-
Step 5Once mixed, squeeze in remaining two limes and then add more salt/pepper to taste.
-
Step 6Refrigerate until serving. Serve with crisp, fresh tortilla chips. Keeps for only about a day so eat up!
