Ceviche makes a light, satisfying meal. Of Peruvian origin, ceviche is fish or seafood marinated in citrus juices, which then “cook” the fish. Make your ceviche from pre-frozen fish. It’s just a smart thing to do. Once it’s been properly frozen, however, the sky’s the limit. You can begin the dish in the morning and the fish will be ready by dinnertime.
