Fresh Shrimp Ceviche with Avocado image

This is a recipe I created by combining all the ingredients I liked in other Ceviche recipes. Turn out to be a hit! Everyone loves it. I make this ahead of time and take it out on our boat. Served in plastic cups. Remember to keep chilled. This can be served as elegant or casual as you like. I've served it in anything from plastic cups to Martini glasses or even in brandy glasses for a more special presentation. Cook time does not include marinating the shrimp.

Yield 15-20 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 lbs medium shrimp, peeled and deveined (i use frozen and thawed)
8 limes, juice of
8 lemons, juice of
2 oranges, juice of, preferably sour oranges
2 (14 1/2 ounce) cans petite cut canned tomatoes (leave in juice)
1 red onion, cut into 1/2-inch dice
1/2 bunch fresh cilantro, stemmed and roughly chopped
1 serrano chili, roughly chopped
2 large avocados, peeled, seeded, and cut into 1/2-inch dice
2 large cucumbers, peeled, seeded and cut into 1/2-inch dice
1 medium yellow bell pepper, cut into 1/2 inch dice (yellow)
1 medium red bell pepper, cut into 1/2 inch dice (red)

Steps:

  • Clean and devein the shrimp, cut into 1-inch pieces, and transfer to a bowl. Add the lime, lemon, and orange juice, stir to combine, and refrigerate for at least 6 hours and up to 8. (I let my sit overnight). This technique cooks the shrimp.
  • Chop all the vegetables into small cubes.
  • Add canned tomatoes with the juice, onion, cilantro, bell peppers and serrano pepper into the shrimp mixture (with the citrus) and let sit at room temperature for about 20 minutes.
  • When ready to serve, gently stir in diced cucumber. Divide the ceviche among 8 chilled martini glasses, top with avocado and tuck 2 to 3 tortilla chips around the sides of each. This recipe actually makes alot! I've served close to 15 people and they all had seconds.
  • You can leave the avocado out and serve it individually for those who don't want avocado -- either way, it's delicious.

I'm a vegetarian, so I used tofu in my ceviche. It was a great way to get my protein fix.

I'm allergic to shrimp, so I used cooked chicken in my ceviche. It turned out great!

I don't think I'll be making this recipe again. It was too much work and the results were not worth it.

The shrimp in my ceviche was a bit tough. I think I should have cooked it for a shorter amount of time.

I followed the recipe exactly and my ceviche turned out bland. I think I should have added more salt and pepper.

I'm not sure why, but my ceviche turned out a little too sour. I think I might have used too much lime juice.

I used frozen shrimp for this recipe and it turned out great. Just be sure to thaw the shrimp completely before cooking.

I'm not a big fan of cilantro, so I omitted it from the recipe. The ceviche was still delicious.

This ceviche recipe is a keeper! The shrimp was incredibly tender and flavorful, and the avocado added a creamy richness that balanced out the acidity of the lime juice.
