Ceviche is one of my favorite summer dishes to eat and to make. Not only does it NOT require me to turn on my oven (always a bonus), the fresh, tangy taste offsets the oppressive heat and is perfect with a cold margarita. Check out my spicy margarita recipe here!
This recipe is so versatile! You can use any combination of fruits and vegetables for the salsa, and you could add shrimp or other seafood to the ceviche to make it what you want. I kept things simple and colorful for this easy and elevated weeknight dinner. It is so simple to make! Don’t be intimidated by the fish curing. As long as you purchase high quality fish, it is safe to eat.
