Citrus Marinated Fish & Seafood (No Tostadas/Chips)

What it is
Fresh raw fish (or mixed seafood) 'cooked' by marinating in the acidity of lime juice, mixed with diced red onions, tomatoes, cilantro, and sometimes jalapeños. A light and refreshing dish, typically served with chips but excellent on its own.
Key ingredients
White fish (e.g., snapper, cod), shrimp (optional), lime juice, red onion, tomato, cilantro, jalapeño, olive oil, salt, pepper.
How to make it keto
Explicitly order without tostadas or tortilla chips. Confirm no added sugars, high-carb fruits (like mango), or corn often found in some fusion ceviches.
Say this to the waiter (Spanish)
El Ceviche de Pescado, por favor sin tostadas ni totopos. ¿Podría confirmar que no lleva azúcar, mango ni maíz?
Ceviche de Pescado, without tostadas or chips. Please confirm no added sugars, mango, or corn are in it.
Watch out for
Tostadas or tortilla chips are standard accompaniments. Some restaurants might add corn or mango to their ceviche, or a touch of sugar to balance the lime.
