Ingredients

1.5 lbs white fish fillets (mahi-mahi or snapper), diced
1 cup fresh lime juice
1/2 red onion, thinly sliced
1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
1 ripe avocado, diced
1 jalapeno, minced
1 tomato, diced
1/4 tsp salt
1/8 tsp black pepper
2 tsp olive oil
2 cups tortilla chips

Instructions

1

Dice 1.5 lbs diced white fish fillets (mahi-mahi or snapper) into small cubes (about 1/2 inch).
2

Place white fish fillets (mahi-mahi or snapper) in a glass or ceramic bowl (not metal). Pour 1 cup fresh lime juice over white fish fillets (mahi-mahi or snapper) until just covered.
3

Add 1/2 thinly sliced red onion, 1 minced jalapeno, and 1/4 tsp salt. Stir gently.

Gently fold in 1 diced ripe avocado, 1 diced tomato, and 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro. Drizzle with 2 tsp olive oil.
6

Season with 1/8 tsp black pepper. Taste and adjust salt if needed.
