Ingredients
For Ceviche
- 2 14-ounce cans hearts of palm, drained and sliced into bite-sized pieces
- 1 ripe avocado diced
- 1/2 medium red onion finely diced
- 1 jalapeño seeded and finely chopped
- 1/2 cup diced red bell pepper
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
Citrus Dressing
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil or olive oil
- 1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice about 3 limes
- 2 tablespoons fresh orange juice
- Salt and black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Drain the hearts of palm well and slice them into bite-sized rounds.
- In a large bowl, combine the hearts of palm, avocado, red onion, jalapeño, red bell pepper, and cilantro.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the vegetable oil, lime juice, orange juice, salt, and pepper until fully combined.
- Pour the dressing over the ceviche, adding only as much as needed to lightly coat the ingredients. Gently toss to combine.
- Taste and adjust the seasoning with additional salt, pepper, or lime juice if needed.
- Serve immediately, or refrigerate for 20 to 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld before serving.
Notes
- You may not need all of the dressing depending on how citrusy you like your ceviche.
- Add the avocado just before serving for the freshest texture.
- For extra sweetness, stir in diced mango or pineapple.
- For a spicier ceviche, leave the jalapeño seeds in or add more to taste.
- Serve with tortilla chips, tostadas, crackers, or spooned over tacos.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
