Begin by ensuring the salmon is fresh and skinless. Dice the salmon into small 1/2-inch cubes and place them in a large bowl.
Juice the limes and lemon. Pour the citrus juice over the salmon, ensuring it is completely covered. This will cure the salmon. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 15-20 minutes, or until the salmon turns opaque.
While the salmon is curing, finely chop the red onion, cilantro, and jalapeño. Remove the seeds from the jalapeño if you prefer less heat.
Dice the avocado and cucumber into small cubes and set aside.
Once the salmon has cured, remove it from the refrigerator. Drain some of the excess citrus juice, leaving a bit to keep the salmon moist.
Add the chopped onion, cilantro, jalapeño, avocado, and cucumber to the salmon.
Season with sea salt and black pepper. Drizzle the extra virgin olive oil over the ceviche.
Gently mix all the ingredients until well combined. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
Serve the Keto Salmon Ceviche immediately, garnished with additional cilantro if desired.
