Instructions

  1. Cut the fish into small, 1-inch pieces, noting that larger pieces require longer marination.

  2. Combine the fish and salt in a non-reactive bowl, then pour in the lime, lemon, and orange juices.

  3. Add sliced onions and chiles to the fish mixture and toss to combine.

  4. Refrigerate for 2 to 3 hours, allowing the fish to marinate; sushi-grade fish may retain a raw center.

  5. To serve, arrange onions and chiles, top with the marinated fish and citrus juices, then garnish with cilantro.
