This zesty ceviche recipe is bursting with fresh flavors and a kick of heat. Succulent fish marinated in tangy lime juice pairs perfectly with crisp onion, briny olives, spicy chilies, juicy tomatoes, and fragrant coriander. Finished off with a drizzle of olive oil, a hint of sweetness, and served with crunchy tortilla chips for a delightful contrast in texture. A refreshing dish to savor on a sunny day with a cool drink in hand.
