Halibut Cebiche

This is as simple as it gets and works as long as you have fresh fish.

1 lb super fresh halibut….(get em to slice up a new fish or find out when they get their fish)
1/4 cup lime juice
1/4 red onion
1 Serrano chile
Salt
Chopped cilantro
1/4 chopped red bell
1/4 chopped yellow bell

Dice up the halibut in thin small chunks, think half a domino in thickness and size, rinse and dry.
Mandolin the red onion very thin, rinse and dry.
Dice up the serrano very small
Combine fish, onion, serrano and lime juice. Salt  a touch and refrigerate for 5 minutes
Stir at 2 minute mark
Take out at 5 minute total….play this by ear.
Add cilantro, and bells.
Bam! serve w avo slices

Way to screw up: too much time in the lime..
