Provided by Marcela Valladolid

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.

Tips:

- For the freshest and best tasting shrimp ceviche, use the freshest shrimp you can find. Wild caught shrimp are ideal, but if you can't find them, farm-raised shrimp will also work. - Make sure to properly devein the shrimp. This will remove the dark vein that runs along the back of the shrimp, which can be gritty and unpleasant to eat. - Use a sharp knife to cut the shrimp into small pieces. This will help the ceviche to cook evenly. - Don't overcook the shrimp. Shrimp ceviche is a raw dish, so the shrimp should only be cooked for a few minutes, until they turn opaque. - Use a variety of fresh citrus juices to make the ceviche marinade. Lime juice is the traditional choice, but you can also use lemon juice, grapefruit juice, or orange juice. - Add some chopped cilantro, onion, and avocado to the ceviche. These ingredients will add flavor and texture to the dish. - Serve the ceviche immediately, or chill it for a few hours before serving. Ceviche is a refreshing and delicious dish that is perfect for a summer party or gathering.
