Instructions

Step 1: In a glass or ceramic bowl, combine 1 lb cubed fresh white fish, 1/4 cup Bayou Rum, 1/2 cup fresh lime juice, and 1/4 cup fresh orange juice. Stir gently to coat the fish completely.
Step 2: Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 2-3 hours, stirring every 30 minutes until the fish turns opaque and 'cooks' in the citrus juice.
Step 3: After curing, drain about half the liquid from the bowl. Add 1/4 cup finely diced red onion, 1 minced jalapeño (seeded), 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro, 1 tsp salt, and 1/2 tsp black pepper. Mix gently.
Step 4: Fold in 1 diced avocado just before serving to maintain its texture.
Step 5: Serve chilled with tortilla chips for scooping.
