Black Sea Bass Ceviche
 

I figure now that the Sea Bass are making their appearance back on the inshore wrecks, this would be a good time to share this recipe I got from my friend and legendary wreck fisherman Capt. Bravo.

Ingredients:

2 lb. Black Sea Bass Fillet - Cubed (bite size)
6 Limes
1 Red Onion - Finely Diced
1 Tomato - Seeded & Chopped
1 habenero pepper - finely diced
Citantro - chopped
1 Avocado - chopped
Salt & Peper
Tobasco

Method:

In a noncorrosive dish (do not use metal), place the Sea Bass, onion, tomato,
habenero, & cilantro. Squeeze the lime juice over ingredients. Let sit in fridge stirring occasionaly. Remove from fridge, add avocado, salt & pepper to taste, & add a dash of tobasco. Stir again and serve with tortilla chips

Re: Black Sea Bass Ceviche
 

Is the non-corrosive dish so that the Tobasco and Habenaro don't "eat" through the metal????:p
Gonna need a couple of Guiness Stouts to wash that down!!!;)

Re: Black Sea Bass Ceviche
 

that sounds damn good :D

Re: Black Sea Bass Ceviche
 

Thanks for all the positive remarks guys...And yes, you might need a few extra beverages to put out the habanero fire!

Re: Black Sea Bass Ceviche

we made a huge batch of this last night and it was DELICIOUS
had garlic sticks with it..what do you usually serve this with?
thanks for posting:)

Sally, I'm glad you liked it. Scoop chips is the way to go and don't forget the ice cold beer for the habanero fire! Tell Ken he's no longer the black cloud!

Made this over the weekend, but used jalapeño peppers instead of the habenero's.....decided this when the sign on the habenero's said 20X hotter than the jalapeños......outstanding appetizer sitting on the deck with a cold one!

if you got any sea bass vacuum frozen it still is ok. just blanch it real quick in boiling water does not affect the taste mucch at all. is a great pAarty dish i served some at my house sat for da ufc fight from frozen sea bass and got told it was great ,was gone before i even got any!!!!!!

Re: Black Sea Bass Ceviche
 

You could do the same with porgies. I have had porgy and sea bass sashimi side-by-side, and the porgies were a better than the seabass.
Don't knock it until you try it!

Re: Black Sea Bass Ceviche
 

Thanks again for the kudos guys :D Since posting this recipe I've experimented with a few more ingrdients and different types of fish. I've used Striped Bass, Fluke, & Blackfish. I Try not to use frozen but have and it worked fine. I Haven't tried porgy but that fish will be next! I've also added/substiuted lemons, oranges and different fruits & vegetables.

Made the ceviche with porgy tonight... Excellent, thanks Redbank!
