Romaine Cups with Ceviche

This South American inspired appetizer is the ultimate cool! The sea bass actually cooks while it is being marinated. The crisp, clean flavors with plenty of spice, are perfect when presented in chilled Andy Boy Romaine leaves.

Ingredients:

1 Andy Boy romaine heart
2 lbs sea bass
3 C lemon juice
2 jalapeño peppers seeded and chopped
1 yellow onion sliced
2 garlic cloves minced
1 small bunch cilantro chopped
2 hass avocados
6 roma tomatoes skinned, seeded and small diced
2 T olive oil
Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Directions:

1. Clean and cut sea bass in 1” cubes.
2. In a mixing bowl mix lemon juice, onions, garlic, olive oil, and jalapeño peppers. Add the fish to the lemon juice mix, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 24 hours until “cooked”, making sure to stir every 6 hours.
3. Separate Andy Boy romaine heart, saving the big leaves to do the wraps and slice the smaller ones.
4. Dice avocados just before serving.
5. About 10 minutes before serving add tomatoes, avocados, cilantro and season with salt and pepper.
6. Form the cups placing some of the sliced lettuce on the bottom and then the ceviche on top. Fold up the bottom and sides to wrap. Garnish with whole cilantro leaves.
