Citrus Marinated Thai Style Halibut

Ceviche, pronounced suh-VEE-chay, seafood is "cooked" by the citric acid, in this case, lemon and lime juice. This is a dish from South America, but I use this recipe for ceviche flavors in Thai cooking often observed. California halibut I here, but this dish would also work well with snapper, rockfish, lingcod, sole and plaice, tuna or work yellow.

Preparation time: 3 hours, 15 minutes

Total time: 3 hours 15 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 1 pounds halibut
  • Lemon juice 1 cup
  • Asian fish sauce 2 T.
  • Juice of 2 lemons
  • 3 cloves garlic, finely chopped
  • 1-2 green chillies, such as cayenne pepper or thai
  • 3 spring onions, finely chopped
  • Mint chopped 2 T.
  • Coriander chopped 1 T.
  • Finely chopped 1 stalk lemon grass (white part only)
  • Sesame oil 1 T.

Preparation:

Cut Cut the halibut into small cubes. What is the size depends on the time pressure, the smaller the more it will "cook" in the citrus marinade. I love thick, so I cut my into cubes about half-3/4 inches.

In a plastic or glass container, pour in a cup of lemon juice and add the pieces of grouper. Stir fish wrap, and refrigerate at least 2 hours. You can leave them in until 8:00.

Once the fish of the lemon juice is marinated for several hours cast and the remaining ingredients. Mix well and to the fridge for 1-2 hours.

Serve cut into thin slices or lime in a cup of lettuce or Napa cabbage. It is a good appetizer for four or a main course for two.
