Step 1
Combine cubed fish, lime juice, salt, and black pepper in a bowl.
Step 2
Stir in half the red onion and all the jalapeño. Let sit 10 minutes.
Step 3
While fish cures, boil sweet potato until fork-tender, ~12 minutes. Drain and cut into wedges.
Step 4
If using fresh choclo, boil until kernels are tender, ~8 minutes. Drain.
Step 5
When fish is opaque at the edges and firm but tender inside, fold in cilantro and remaining raw onion.
Step 6
Spoon ceviche into bowls. Arrange sweet potato wedges, choclo, and cancha on the side. Serve immediately.
