Ingredients

• Fresh white fish (such as tilapia or snapper) - 200 grams, diced
• Lime juice - 60 ml
• Fresh orange juice - 30 ml
• Red onion - 1 small, thinly sliced
• Tomato - 1 medium, diced

• Salt - 1/2 teaspoon
• Black pepper - 1/4 teaspoon
• Olive oil - 1 tablespoon

Steps

1. In a mixing bowl, combine the diced fish with lime juice and orange juice. Make sure the fish is fully submerged in the juice.
2. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let it marinate in the refrigerator for about 15-20 minutes until the fish turns opaque.
