Shrimp Ceviche

Shrimp Ceviche is a refreshing dish that combines the zest of citrus with tender seafood. This Latin American favorite is created by marinating shrimp in lime juice and then adding tomatoes, onions, cilantro, and avocado. The lime juice acts as a cooking agent, delivering a light and tangy flavor. This dish is simple to prepare and offers a splendid option for an appetizer or a light meal, adaptable for various dining occasions.

Ingredients

• 1 lb shrimp, peeled and deveined
• 1 cup lime juice
• 1 whole tomato, diced
• 1/2 cup red onion, finely chopped
• 1 whole jalapeno, seeded and minced
• 1/4 cup cilantro, chopped
• 1 whole avocado, diced

Instructions

1. Combine the shrimp and lime juice in a bowl. Ensure the shrimp are fully submerged. Cover the bowl and refrigerate to marinate for at least 20 minutes, allowing the citrus to ‘cook’ the shrimp.
2. Add the diced tomato, finely chopped red onion, minced jalapeno, and chopped cilantro to the marinated shrimp.
3. Incorporate the diced avocado and mix gently to combine without breaking the avocado pieces.
4. Serve the Shrimp Ceviche chilled, garnishing optionally with additional cilantro or lime wedges.
