Adirondack Seviche
Note: You'll want to end up with about 1/3 fish and 2/3 other ingredients when this is done.
First, have a beer.
Fillet walleye and cut into 1/3"-1/2" (approx.) pieces/chunks. Be sure you remove all the bones. Place in plastic bag or bowl and cover with lemon (or lime) juice. You can use bottle or fresh. Marinate in the refrigerator overnight. This process actually cooks the fish! (It will turn opaque white.) Drain off the juices, do not rinse. Add a little bit of olive oil to coat very lightly & place back into the refrigerator. Chop the following into small cube-like pieces and add to the marinated cooked walleye.
peppers (green, red, yellow, etc.)
green onions (or any other onion)
fresh tomatoes (from the garden is super!)
fresh cilantro (be careful here, some like lots, some not)
garlic (finely chopped) or minced dry
celery
green olives (sliced)
parsley (fresh or dried)
Giardiniera garden mix*
You can also add things like broccoli, cauliflower, zucchini, etc.
salt & pepper to taste
Now that you are done reading & chopping the veggies & adding the other ingredients, have another beer.
Refrigerate for a few hours. During this time you should consume as many beers as you can & leave serving details to your wife/girlfriend. Before serving, drain off any extra liquids so you can serve it on a fresh romaine lettuce salad after draining. (Don't drain what you are not going to eat. Treat it like pickles. It will continue to marinate and take on flavor. It will keep about a week, maybe a tad longer.)
It is advisable not to continue drinking beer during the week it is in the refrigerator due to the inability to remember that you have to eat something.
*This can be found in the pickle section [usually in small jars] of your grocery store and usually comes in hot, medium, or mild. If you can't find it, don't worry, your seviche will be fine...it's like a salad...you can put in whatever you like. You may find something similar. The above is mostly made up of hot peppers and tiny pieces of raw veggies.
Enjoy!
