Ingredients
  

  • 2 large tomatoes
  • lb fish of choice I recommended halibut, tilapia, or tuna
  • 2 limes
  • ½ teaspoon vinegar
  • ¼ cup red onion
  • 1 jalapeño
  • cup cilantro
  • 1 teaspoon salt

Instructions
 

  • Begin by taking one small tilapia filet, or halibut or tuna (about ⅓ pound) and dice it into very small pieces. The fish should almost look ground by the time you are done dicing it.
  • Place the cut fish into a medium sized mixing bowl and add the salt, vinegar, and squeeze the limes into is also.
  • Give it a little mix, cover it with plastic and place it in the fridge to "cook" or marinate in the lime juice for 20-30 minutes while you prep the other add-ins.
  • Wash and prepare all of the other ingredients. Dice the tomatoes finely, chop the cilantro, take the seeds and membrane out of the jalapeño and dice it up.
  • Add all of the ingredients into the lime cooked fish and stir it together. Serve with tortilla chips, tostadas or on crostini.
