Leche de Tigre Style Ceviche with Baklouti Chili Fused Olive Oil
Ingredients
1 pound of very fresh deboned Rock Cod, Mahi Mahi, Halibut, Corvina or Sea Bass cut into 1″ pieces
¼ red onion, finely chopped
2 tablespoons chopped cilantro
Salt to taste
Leche de Tigre
6 limes
2 Tablespoons Baklouti Chili Fused Olive Oil
