Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Slice fish against the grain into thin strips, about 1/8 inch thick, and place in a shallow bowl.

  2. Step 2

    Pour lime juice over fish. Toss gently to coat all pieces evenly.

  3. Step 3

    Let fish sit in lime juice 5–8 minutes. The fish should turn opaque and slightly firm.

  4. Step 4

    Add sliced jalapeño, red onion, cilantro, and salt. Gently toss.

  5. Step 5

    Drizzle olive oil over the top and stir once more to combine.

  6. Step 6

    Divide among bowls. Top with avocado slices if desired. Serve immediately.
