Mango Shrimp Ceviche image

This recipe is great for those hot, summer days. It is both light and healthy and soooo refreshing! It is also very easy to make. Enjoy!

Provided by Michelle Wise

Categories     Seafood Appetizers

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 mango
3/4 lb raw, deveined and shelled shrimp
1 cucumber
1-2 tomatoes
1/2 c fresh cilantro
1/2 red onion
3-4 limes
dash(es) salt

Steps:

  • 1. Place the shrimp in boiling water for 2-3 minutes or until they are pink and no longer translucent (do not overcook or they will be rubbery and tough). Drain and plunge them into a bowl of ice water. Let them chill while you do the next step.
  • 2. Chop the mango, cucumber(scrap out the seeds first), tomatoes(I use Roma), cilantro, and red onion. Drain and chop the shrimp. Place the all the ingredients in a bowl. Add salt to taste and the juice of the limes and toss.
  • 3. Chill for about an hour and serve with tortilla chips or on tostada shells.

Tips:

  • Use the freshest ingredients possible for the best flavor.
  • If you don't have fresh cilantro, you can substitute parsley or mint.
  • If you don't have white vinegar, you can use apple cider vinegar or rice vinegar.
  • Be careful not to overcook the shrimp. They should be cooked through but still slightly pink in the center.
  • Serve the escabeche chilled for the best flavor.

Conclusion:

Shrimp cucumber and mango escabeche is a refreshing and flavorful dish that is perfect for a summer party or potluck. It is also a great way to use up leftover shrimp. The combination of sweet, sour, and savory flavors is sure to please everyone. So next time you are looking for a new and exciting recipe, give this one a try. You won't be disappointed!
