Ingredients

• 0.5 Pounds (lb) halibut fillets, divided
• 10 Whole shrimp, divided
• 4 Large sea scallops, divided
• 0.5 Cups fresh lemon juice
• 0.25 Cups fresh grapefruit juice
• 1 Whole yellow bell pepper, sliced
• 3 Large jalapeño peppers, minced
• 0.33 Cups Maui onion, minced
• 0.25 Cups green olives, sliced
• 1 Tablespoon fresh ginger root, minced
• 1 Tablespoon brown sugar
• 1 Teaspoon (tsp) salt
• 6 Ounces (oz) can tomato paste
• 1 Large tomato, diced

Steps

1. In a glass bowl, combine the halibut, shrimp, scallops, lemon juice, and grapefruit juice. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 6 hours, or until the halibut turns opaque, allowing the citrus juices to "cook" the seafood.
2. In a separate glass bowl, mix together the bell pepper, jalapeño peppers, Maui onion, green olives, ginger, brown sugar, salt, and tomato paste. Stir until the tomato paste is fully incorporated and no chunks remain.
3. Drain the marinated seafood and add it to the vegetable mixture along with the diced tomato. Gently stir to combine all ingredients evenly.
4. Return the ceviche to the refrigerator and chill for at least 15 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
5. Serve the ceviche chilled, accompanied by toasted points of fresh, gourmet bread for a delightful contrast in textures.

Enjoy this refreshing and flavorful ceviche as a standout appetizer or a light, satisfying meal!
