Join me and let's see how to make Tuna Ceviche with Fried Tortillas

Instructions:

    Step 1
  • In a large bowl, combine the diced tuna and lime juice. Make sure the tuna is fully submerged in the lime juice. Cover and refrigerate for about 15-20 minutes to "cook" the tuna in the acid, stirring occasionally.
  • Step 2
  • While the tuna is marinating, prepare the fried tortillas. In a deep skillet, heat about 1 inch of vegetable oil over medium-high heat. When the oil is hot, add the tortillas one at a time and fry until they are golden and crispy, about 1-2 minutes per side. Transfer them to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
  • Step 3
  • After the tuna has marinated, drain off most of the lime juice, leaving a small amount for flavor. Add the finely diced red onion, cucumber, red bell pepper, yellow bell pepper, jalapeño, and chopped cilantro to the bowl. Mix well to combine.
  • Step 4
  • Season the ceviche with salt and pepper to taste. Adjust the seasoning and lime juice to your preference.
  • Step 5
  • To serve, place a spoonful of the tuna ceviche on each fried tortilla. Garnish with additional cilantro if desired.
  • Step 6
  • Enjoy your refreshing tuna ceviche with crispy fried tortillas as a delightful appetizer or light meal. It's best served immediately.
