Delicate sea bass cured in lime juice and layered on a tostada with spicy mayo, cucumber, avocado, and an Asian inspired sauce.
Ingredients
- 1 pound Chilean Sea Bass Filets
- 1 teaspoon Kosher Salt
- 1 cup Lime Juice ((divided))
- 8 Corn Tostadas
- 1 Cucumber (thinly sliced)
- 1 Avocado (thinly sliced)
- 2 tablespoon Lime Juice
- 2 tablespoon Coconut Aminos (*see notes)
- 1 teaspoon Fish Sauce
- ½ Shallot
- 1 tablespoon Cilantro ((Chopped))

Instructions
- 1
--- Ceviche ---
- 2
If using frozen sea bass, remove and allow fillets to slightly thaw.
- 3
Use a juicer or citrus press to squeeze limes until you get about 1 cup of juice.
- 4
Slice Sea Bass into ½ inch pieces and place in a glass or ceramic bowl.
- 5
Season fish with salt and cover with ¾ cup of lime juice. Stir to combine and make sure all of the fish is submerged in the lime juice.
- 6
Place in the refrigerator to cook for 30 minutes. I've left it up to 2 hours, but the longer the fish cooks in the lime juice the more rubbery it may get.
