Yield Makes 3 cups, serving 6 as an appetizer

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
1 generous pound unpeeled smallish shrimp (I prefer the ones that are 41/50 count to a pound)
1/2 medium white onion, chopped into 1/4 inch pieces
1/3 cup chopped fresh cilantro, plus several sprigs for garnish
N/A fresh cilantro sprigs
1/2 cup ketchup
1 to 2 tablespoons vinegary Mexican bottled hot sauce (such as Tamazula, Valentina or Búfalo, the latter being on the sweet side)
About 2 tablespoons olive oil, preferably extra-virgin (optional, but recommended to smooth out sharpness)
1 cup diced peeled cucumber or jícama (or 1/2 cup of each)
1 small ripe avocado, peeled, pitted and cubed
Salt
Several lime slices for garnish
Tostadas or tortilla chips, store-bought or homemade or saltine crackers for serving

Steps:

  • Cooking and Marinating the Shrimp.
  • Bring 1 quart salted water to a boil and add 2 tablespoons of the lime juice. Scoop in the shrimp, cover and let the water return to the boil. Immediately remove from the heat, set the lid askew and pour off all the liquid. Replace the cover and let the shrimp steam off the heat for 10 minutes. Spread out the shrimp in a large glass or stainless steel bowl to cool completely. Peel and devein the shrimp if you wish: One by one lay the shrimp on your work surface, make a shallow incision down the back and scrape out the (usually) dark intestinal tract. Toss the shrimp with the remaining 1/2 lime juice, cover and refrigerate for about an hour.
  • The flavorings.
  • In a small strainer, rinse the onion under cold water, then shake off the excess liquid. Add to the shrimp bowl along with the cilantro, ketchup, hot sauce, optional olive oil, cucumber and/or jícama and avocado. Taste and season with salt, usually about 1/2 teaspoon. Cover and refrigerate if not serving immediately.
  • Serving the ceviche.
  • Spoon the ceviche into sundae glasses, martini glasses, or small bowls: garnish with sprigs of cilantro and slices of lime. Serve with tostadas, tortilla chips or saltines to enjoy alongside.
  • Working Ahead:
  • The ceviche is best made the day it is served. The flavorings can be added to the shrimp a few hours in advance.

Tips:

  • Use fresh shrimp: Fresh shrimp will give your dish the best flavor. If you can't find fresh shrimp, frozen shrimp can be used, but be sure to thaw them completely before cooking.
  • Don't overcook the shrimp: Shrimp cooks very quickly, so it's important not to overcook it. Overcooked shrimp will be tough and chewy.
  • Use a variety of vegetables: This recipe calls for bell peppers, onions, and tomatoes, but you can use any vegetables you like. Some other good options include zucchini, squash, and mushrooms.
  • Add some spice: If you like spicy food, you can add some chili peppers or cayenne pepper to the dish. You can also add some chopped cilantro or parsley for a fresh flavor.
  • Serve with your favorite sides: Shrimp Cerveza can be served with a variety of sides, such as rice, beans, or tortillas. It's also great with a salad or some grilled vegetables.

Conclusion:

Shrimp Cerveza is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that's perfect for any occasion. It's a great way to use up leftover shrimp, and it's also a healthy and affordable meal. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy dinner, give Shrimp Cerveza a try. You won't be disappointed!
