Equipment
Ingredients
- 12 ounces (2 cans) lump crabmeat, drained
- ¼ cup fresh lime juice (about 2 limes)
- ½ cup chopped red onion, chopped
- 1 plum tomato, chopped
- 1 jalapeño, chopped
- ¼ cup fresh cilantro, roughly chopped
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Place the crabmeat in a medium glass bowl. Squeeze in lime juice and let the crabmeat marinate for about 5 minutes.
- Stir in the onion, tomato, jalapeño, cilantro, salt, and pepper. Make sure all the ingredients are coated with the lime juice.
- Refrigerate for about 10-15 minutes before serving.
Notes
- Do not use plastic bowls to make ceviche. Glass or ceramic bowls are best to use when working with citrus.
- Since we are using canned crab meat, there’s no need to marinate it for too long.
- Serve this ceviche with tortilla chips, plantain chips, or tostadas.
