Introduce the dish and key ingredient: yellowtail snapper.

Choose fresh fish with bright pink gills and a sweet smell, avoiding fishy odors.

Fillet the yellowtail snapper using an up and over cut technique, ensuring no pin bones or bloodline remains.

Cut the fish into manageable pieces and into small cubes.

In a bowl, add about 3 ounces of cubed yellowtail snapper.

Marinate the fish with salt and lime juice, observing the color change as it 'cooks' in the acid.

Add local shrimp to the fish mixture.

Sprinkle chili lime spice on top of the fish and shrimp mixture.

Garnish with micro cilantro and arrange on a serving dish.

Pour michelada mix (clamato, Worcestershire sauce, hot sauce, and lime juice) around the ceviche.
