CEVICHE DE PESCADO - FISH CEVICHE

Steps:

• 1. In a medium bowl, combine fish, jalapeño peppers, garlic, and 2 tbsp. chopped cilantro; stir well. Pour in lime juice just enough to cover and gently press down with a spoon to make sure the fish is submerged. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for 2 ½ to 3 hours.
• 2. About ½ hour before removing the fish from the fridge, in a large bowl add shallot with a pinch salt and pour warm water (enough to cover onion); let it rest for about 10 minutes. Drain in a fine sieve and transfer back to the bowl.
• 3. Combine the rinsed onions with peppers and tomatoes. Add ¼ cup lime juice, stir and let the mix marinate for at least 10 minutes. It can be also prepared ahead of time and refrigerated until ready to mix with fish.
• 4. Once the fish is cooked, it should be completely white. Remove the flesh with a slotted spoon and discard jalapeños, seeds and garlic cloves; reserved ¼ cup lime juice. Add the marinated onion, tomato, pepper mixture to the fish. Add remaining chopped cilantro, reserved lime juice, oil, and ground sea salt; stir. Taste and adjust if needed, add ground black pepper and hot sauce. Let it rest for 25 to 30 minutes on the counter before serving.
• 5. NOTE: The total amount of both peppers together should be ¾ cup
