Ingredients

  • 1 lb shrimp raw
  • 1 red onion finely diced
  • 8 limes juiced
  • 1 green chili finely diced
  • ¼ cup hot sauce
  • ½ cucumber diced
  • 1 large tomato diced
  • 1 ripe avocado diced
  • ¼ cup cilantro fresh
  • salt to taste

Instructions

  • Cut the raw shrimp into small pieces and add them to a large bowl. Pour the lime juice over the shrimp, cover, and refrigerate for a minimum of 1 hour. The lime juice will cook the shrimp.
  • After one hour, make sure the shrimp are pink and fully cooked. Fold in the remaining ingredients, season with salt, and enjoy!

Notes

  • For the best ceviche, you will need high-quality ingredients. You'll want the shrimp and veggies to be fresh and the avocado to be ripe.
  • Refrigerate the shrimp ceviche for at least 1 hour to allow it to cook. Because we're using raw shrimp, it's crucial to ensure they are fully cooked. You'll know when the shrimp is cooked when they turn pink and are no longer opaque.
  • Make sure to cover the shrimp in lime juice so it cooks evenly.
  • Serve cold for best results.
  • Feel free to use any type of white fish instead of shrimp such as cod, halibut, or mahi-mahi.
