Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Shrimp

    Start by thoroughly rinsing the raw shrimp under cold water. Remove the shells and tails, then chop the shrimp into small, bite-sized pieces.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Shrimp

    Place the chopped shrimp in a glass or ceramic bowl and pour the lime juice over them. Ensure all the shrimp is submerged. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for about 30 minutes, or until the shrimp becomes opaque and appears 'cooked' by the acidity of the lime juice.

Mixing

  1. 3

    Chop Vegetables

    While the shrimp is marinating, finely chop the red onion, tomato, cucumber, cilantro, and jalapeño. Make sure to remove the seeds from the jalapeño for less heat, if desired.

  2. 4

    Combine Ingredients

    After the shrimp has marinated, drain some excess lime juice if it's too soupy. Add the chopped vegetables to the shrimp mixture, along with salt, black pepper, and diced avocado. Gently toss everything together until well mixed.

Serving

  1. 5

    Serve the Ceviche

    Transfer the shrimp ceviche to individual serving bowls or a large serving platter. Garnish with extra cilantro and lime wedges, if desired. Enjoy chilled!
