Lionfish Ceviche Cayman Island style
Ceviche is a seafood dish where diced cubes of raw fish marinated in a lemon or lime juice mixture, and the reaction of the citrus juices cure the fish protein and cause it to become opaque and firm while absorbing flavor. This process is called denaturing — you’re more familiar with the process of denaturing with heat, a.k.a. cooking, but this reaction achieves a similar effect. After curing, the fish is then served with colorful seasoning elements such as onions, cilantro, and peppers. It’s a simple and bracing dish where fresh fish and bright flavors are put on display.
