Ceviche is a delicious and fresh seafood dish that everyone should try. Ceviche, also known as cebiche, is popular in the Caribbean and along the coast of Latin America. It is a dish made from fresh, raw fish, which has been marinated with lime or lemon juices, sometimes both, for a delicious, citrusy taste. The acidity of the lemon or lime actually “cooks” the fish, so heat is not necessary.

It may be served with chopped onions, cilantro, and salt depending on where it is being eaten. Side dishes such as avocado, sweet potato and lettuce are often served with ceviche.
