The Perfect Ceviche Recipe for Fresh Kingfish or Any Catch

Our absolute go-to for summer – this easy Kingfish ceviche recipe is the perfect way to enjoy your fresh catch of the day. With just a few simple ingredients, including the star of the show – Kingfish (or any fresh catch), plus a zesty lemon kick, creamy avocado, red onion, and a sprinkle of salt and pepper, you’ve got a dish that’s as simple as it is delicious. Whether you're on the pier with the crew or at home, this recipe is a must-try.

Ingredients:

Fresh Kingfish (or any fresh catch you’ve got your hands on)

1 red onion

1 ripe avocado
2 lemons

Salt and pepper (to taste)

Tortilla chips (for serving)

Method:

Catch and Fillet Your Fresh Fish:

If you’ve been lucky enough to hook a Kingfish (or whatever fresh catch you’ve landed), get stuck into filleting it. The fresher, the better. Rinse it off, pat dry, and get it prepped for some proper ceviche.

Dice Up the Fish:

Cut your fillets into nice, bite-sized cubes. Keep ‘em neat and even so you get that nice consistent flavour with every bite.

Chop the Veggies:

While you’re at it, finely chop your red onion into thin slices and dice up that ripe avocado.

Squeeze in the Lemon:

Squeeze the fresh lemon juice over the fish and veggies. The citrus will kick off the marinating process and start "cooking" the fish right away.

Season it Right:

Add a decent pinch of salt and a good crack of pepper. Mix everything together gently, making sure that citrus and seasoning are doing their job.

Let It Marinate:

Here’s where the magic happens – let your ceviche marinate. For the best result, let it chill in the fridge for at least 30 minutes, though if you’re anything like us, you’ll probably be digging in long before that. While it’s sitting, you’ll start seeing the crew drift over, sniffing the air. They’ll know what’s up...

Serve with Tortilla Chips:

Once it’s marinated, grab a big bowl of crunchy tortilla chips and serve that ceviche up. Grab a chip, scoop up the ceviche, and enjoy that fresh, tangy goodness. Watch as the crew dives in – trust us, it won’t last long.

This easy Kingfish ceviche recipe is your go-to for keeping it fresh, simple, and packed with flavour. Whether you’ve just pulled in your catch or you’re kicking back with mates, this dish will have you sorted for a solid feed. Fresh, light, and full of flavour – it’s a winner every time.
