Ingredients
- 8 oz fresh raw fish fillet such as striped bass (finely diced)
- 1 medium seeded tomato (finely diced)
- 1 tbsp chopped cilantro
- 1 tbsp minced red onion
- 1/2 jalapeño (minced)
- 1/4 yellow bell pepper (finely diced)
- 1/2 tbsp olive oil
- 3 drops tabasco sauce
- 3 tbsp fresh lime ((1 or 2 limes))
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper (as needed)
- 2 large cucumbers (thirty 1/2-inch-thick slices)
- fresh cilantro for garnish
Steps
-
In a medium bowl, combine the sea bass, tomato, onion, chopped cilantro, jalapeño, bell
-
pepper, oil, and Tabasco.
-
Add the lime juice and toss to coat the fish.
-
Season with salt and pepper.
-
Cover and marinate in the refrigerator at least 1 hour depending on the size of the fish cubes, stirring occasionally.
-
Look at the fish and you can see the flesh changing over time in the marinade, you are looking for a solid appearance in the flesh vs. an opaqueness all the way through the center of the fish.
-
Trim the cucumber slices with a round cutter to remove the rind.
-
With a melon baller scoop out a shallow pocket in the middle of the cucumber slices—do not cut all the way through the slice.
-
Just before serving, fill the cucumber cups with the ceviche.
-
Garnish each ceviche cup with a small dot of sour cream and a cilantro leaf, if desired.
