Start by ensuring the seabass fillets are skinless and boneless. Cut the fillets into small, bite-sized cubes.
In a large glass or ceramic bowl, combine the seabass cubes with lime juice, lemon juice, and orange juice. Ensure the fish is fully submerged in the citrus juices. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes, or until the fish turns opaque and is ‘cooked’ by the acid in the juices.
While the fish is marinating, finely chop the red onion, cilantro leaves, and jalapeño pepper. Be sure to remove the seeds from the jalapeño if you prefer less heat. Add these ingredients to a mixing bowl.
Cut the avocado into small cubes, halve the cherry tomatoes, and peel and dice the cucumber. Add these to the mixing bowl with the onion, cilantro, and jalapeño.
Once the fish is ready, remove it from the refrigerator. Drain off some of the excess citrus juice if necessary, but ensure the fish remains moist.
Gently combine the marinated seabass with the prepared vegetables and avocado mixture.
Drizzle the ceviche with extra virgin olive oil and season with sea salt and black pepper to taste.
Serve the ceviche immediately for the freshest flavor. Optionally, serve with crispy tortilla chips or lettuce cups for a delightful crunch.
