Summer Watermelon Ceviche
Step 1
To prepare the marinade, combine all ingredients in a blender or food processor and blend on high until garlic, ginger, and fish have been fully puréed. At the same time, chop the fish into cubes.
Step 2
Let the mixture sit refrigerated for about 5 minutes, which helps infuse maximum flavor.
Step 3
Pass the marinade through a fine mesh strainer, pushing the liquid through the pulp.
Step 4
In a mixing bowl, combine all remaining ingredients (minus the olive oil) with the marinade. Gently massage the fish, depending on how "cooked" you prefer it. Then let it sit for anywhere from 5 minutes to an hour.
Step 5
Plate, drizzle with olive oil, and serve.
