Ceviche Verde

This recipe is from Epicurious website. I eat ceviche at a Mexican restaurant and I love it. I finally, made it my self. It is a great recipe. I used bassa filet for the fish. I didn't have tomatillos ad green olives. I didn't use them but it worked very well without them. It has a great fresh taste to it. It is  a great appetizer.

Ingredients

 1 pound fresh Pacific halibut or other firm-fleshed fish
1 teaspoon kosher salt
3 tablespoons fresh lime juice
2 ripe avocados, peeled and pitted
3/4 cup green olives, sliced
1/2 cup tomatillos, diced
1/4 cup onion, very finely chopped
1/4 cup fresh cilantro leaves
1 jalapeño, stemmed, seeded, and minced (optional)
2 tablespoons olive oil
Tostadas or tortilla chips
Preparation

Chop fish into 1/2" cubes; place in medium bowl. Add kosher salt; toss to coat. Add lime juice; toss to coat. Marinate until the edges of the cubes begin to turn opaque, tossing occasionally, about 30 minutes.
Dice avocados; add to bowl along with green olives, tomatillos, onion, cilantro, and jalapeño Add olive oil and season to taste with salt.
Serve over tostadas or with tortilla chips for dipping.
