Ceviche Verde Green Mexican Ceviche Recipes

Steps:

• Place a dry nonstick or cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Roast unpeeled garlic cloves and chilies, turning frequently, until soft, about 10 minutes for the chilies and 15 minutes for the garlic. Cool, then remove skins from garlic and stems from chilies.
• In a food processor, combine chilies, garlic, cilantro, parsley, olive oil and salt. Process until nearly smooth. Cover the herb paste and refrigerate until needed.
• To finish ceviche: In a large bowl, whisk together the lime juice and 1/2 cup of herb paste. Add fish and cucumber, and stir to combine. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes (or up to an hour). Transfer remaining herb paste to a jar, cover with a film of oil, refrigerate and save for another use, like stirring into eggs or smearing on chicken before roasting or grilling.
• Taste and season with additional lime juice or salt as desired. Gently fold in most of the avocado, reserving a few cubes as a garnish. Line plates or cocktail glasses with lettuce leaves, and top with ceviche and remaining avocado.

Steps:

• Place the mahi mahi in a stainless-steel or nonreactive bowl. Season with salt and let stand 10 minutes, then add the lime juice and toss gently. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1 to 1 1/2 hours.
• Add the tomatillos, olives, red onion, jalapeño, avocado, cilantro, and olive oil and toss gently to combine. Season to taste with salt and serve immediately in individual glass bowls or martini glasses, accompanied by tortilla chips or crackers.

Steps:

• Bring a pot of water to a boil, add squid and cook 30 seconds. Drain, and place in ice water.
• Place jalapeno pepper, garlic, oregano, vinegar and 1/4 cup water in a blender, and puree. Transfer to a bowl, and add parsley, cilantro, olive oil and lime juice. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Drain squid, and add. Marinate 15 minutes, then serve.

Steps:

• Dice the fish into 1/4-inch cubes, place in a ceramic or glass bowl and sprinkle with 1 teaspoon kosher salt. Add the lime juice and mix well. Cover with plastic wrap, pressing down so the fish is submerged in the juice. Refrigerate for 30 minutes, or up to an hour for a firmer texture.
• Drain the fish in a colander and return it to the mixing bowl. Add the onion, scallions, tomatillos and half the chiles. Add a good pinch of salt and mix well. Taste and add more chopped chiles if necessary. Stir in the cilantro and add a squeeze of lime.
• Line 4 to 6 individual plates with lettuce leaves. Center a tostada or several large tortilla chips on each plate and spoon the ceviche mixture on top.
• Surround with lightly salted avocado slices, then add radishes and lime wedges.

Steps:
