Ceviche Made Easy for the 'Girl's Game Night'

 This is a treat for games night. Maggie, Susan and Martha rave about it so here it is.  Simple and easy but delicious.

  • 1/2 red onion, thinly sliced. (into a bowl)
  • sprinkle of salt onto onions
  • 4-5 limes - freshly squeezed
  • 1/4 serrano pepper (add more for the heat) diced very small
  • 1 pound fresh fish- I really prefer a denser fish such as Halibut (fresh Pacific coast)
  • 1/41/2 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
  • 1 cup fresh BC's own cherry tomatoes, sliced or cut in half 
  • 1 cup diced cucumber
  • splash of olive oil
  • salt & pepper to taste
  • Add sliced onions to the bowl, sprinkle with salt.
  • Juice limes into the same bowl and allow the onion to marinade while you chop the rest of the ingredients.
  • Always rinse fish in cold water before chopping or placing on a fresh cutting board.
  • Dice the halibut into pieces that will easily fit onto a cracker when serving.
  • Add halibut pieces to the onions, sprinkle with salt and pepper. Add remaining ingredients
  • and stir in the lime juice.  
  • Let sit in the fridge for 2 hours while the halibut is 'cooking' in the lime juice.
  • Serve with crackers or sliced baguette.
