Time 25m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

Ingredients

1 pound high-quality medium raw shrimp, peeled, deveined, tail removed, cut into thin pieces
1 cup freshly squeezed lime juice
1 cup peeled, seeded and finely chopped cucumber
1 cup seeded and finely chopped tomato
1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro
1/2 cup finely chopped red onion
1 serrano chile pepper, deveined, seeded and minced
Kosher salt, for seasoning
Saltine crackers
Bottled hot sauce
Lime wedges, optional

Steps:

Place the shrimp in a large mixing bowl. Add 1/2 cup lime juice and let stand for 15 minutes so the shrimp can "cook" in the lime juice (any less and it won't cook, any more and it toughens).
Meanwhile, in a separate large mixing bowl, mix the remaining 1/2 cup lime juice, cucumbers, tomatoes, cilantro, red onions and serrano chile to incorporate evenly. Transfer the mixed vegetables into the shrimp bowl and mix well to incorporate. Season the ceviche with some salt. Serve with saltine crackers, bottled hot sauce and lime wedges if desired.

This ceviche will give you a hint of Baja California. This is my grandma Isabel Flores' recipe. Garnish with fresh oregano. Enjoy with tostadas and ketchup. I enjoy my ceviche spreading a thin layer of mayonnaise in my tostada prior to add the ceviche. From my table to yours. Enjoy.

Tips:

Use only the freshest ingredients: This is especially important for the shrimp and the lime juice. The shrimp should be firm and translucent, and the lime juice should be fresh and acidic.
Cut the shrimp into small pieces: This will help the shrimp to marinate more evenly in the lime juice.
Marinate the shrimp for at least 30 minutes: This will give the shrimp time to absorb the flavors of the lime juice and the other ingredients.
Use a variety of vegetables: This will add color, flavor, and texture to the ceviche. Some good options include tomatoes, onions, cilantro, cucumbers, and bell peppers.
Don't overcook the shrimp: The shrimp should be cooked through, but still slightly translucent. If you overcook the shrimp, it will become tough and rubbery.
Serve the ceviche chilled: This will help to keep the shrimp fresh and prevent it from becoming too acidic.

Conclusion:

Shrimp ceviche is a delicious and refreshing dish that is perfect for a summer party or gathering. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own personal taste. So next time you're looking for a light and healthy meal, give shrimp ceviche a try!
