This tasty and refreshing ceviche can be prepared quickly, without fuss. It’s ideal for serving as a starter or as the main dish when accompanied by tostones or platanutres (plantain chips.) I usually make this dish for my family on the weekends, when I feel like cooking something lighter. I hope you enjoy my twist on this traditional Peruvian dish, which usually includes raw seafood marinated in lime juice. We’ve also discovered that white wine goes great with this recipe.

Directions

Expert Tips

  • tip 1
    You add pineapple, or use it instead of mango. If you like spice, a chili pepper or jalapeño pepper can be added.
  • tip 2
    Pre-cooked shrimp of any size will also work well for this recipe, or you can substitute the shrimp for tilapia.
