Notes: In Louisiana, this ceviche would be "cheviche piquante" meaning "tomato base".
A good substitute for the tomatoes, hot peppers, and green peppers might be Rotel's and Chilies.
Variations in flavor of seviche depend on the particular citrus juice or combination of juices and other ingredients in the marinade. The marinade juice could be lemon, lime, or sour orange, or a combination of the juices. The acid in the citrus juices and the action of the salt called for in the recipes prevent growth of micro-organisms in the fish, softening the fibers as they penetrate. The enhancing ingredients - hot peppers, green peppers, garlic, and onion - give ceviche its pleasing gusto.
