Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

Ingredients

2 pounds tilapia fillets, finely diced* see Cook's Note
1 cup lime juice (about 8 large limes)
1/2 cup seeded chopped tomato
1/2 cucumber, peeled, seeded and finely diced
1/2 cup finely chopped onion
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro leaves
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup clam-tomato juice (recommended: Clamato), optional
1 tablespoon bottled hot sauce (recommended: Huichol), optional
1 serrano chile, optional
Grilled Tostadas, recipe follows, or 6 purchased tostadas
Mayonnaise, for spreading
1 avocado, halved, pitted, peeled, and thinly sliced
1 lime, cut into wedges
6 corn tortillas

Steps:

Put the tilapia in a medium bowl. Pour the lime juice over the fish and mix gently to combine. Cover with plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator until the fish is white throughout, about 15 to 20 minutes.
Remove from the refrigerator and drain off the lime juice, gently squeezing the fish with your hands. Discard the lime juice. Add the tomato, cucumber, onion, and cilantro. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Add the clam-tomato juice and the hot sauce and chile, if using.
Spread the tostadas generously with mayonnaise and top with the ceviche. Arrange the avocado slices on top of the ceviche and serve immediately with the lime wedges alongside.
Heat a grill or grill pan over medium heat.
Put the tortillas on the grill or grill pan, and let them dry out until they are crunchy. Purchased tostadas can be substituted.

Tips:

Choose ripe avocados that yield to gentle pressure. Unripe avocados will not have the creamy texture needed for ceviche.
Use fresh tilapia fillets that are firm and have a mild smell. Avoid fillets that are slimy or have a strong odor.
Cut the tilapia into small, bite-sized pieces. This will help the fish to marinate evenly and cook quickly.
Use a sharp knife to dice the avocado. This will help to prevent the avocado from becoming mushy.
Add the lime juice to the avocado and tilapia immediately after cutting. This will help to prevent the avocado from browning and the tilapia from cooking too much.
Season the ceviche to taste with salt, pepper, and cilantro. You can also add other seasonings, such as chopped onion, jalapeño, or Serrano peppers.
Serve the ceviche immediately or chill it for later. Ceviche is best enjoyed within 24 hours of being made.

Conclusion:

Avocado and tilapia ceviche is a delicious and refreshing dish that is perfect for a summer party or a light lunch. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With its bright flavors and healthy ingredients, avocado and tilapia ceviche is a dish that you will want to make again and again.
