Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Bring a pot of water to a boil. While you're waiting for that, fill up a large bowl with ice and water and set aside.
  2. Place the shrimp in the boiling water and cook for one minute. Use a skimmer to remove the shrimp to the ice water bath. Once the shrimp have fully cooled, drain the water through a colander.
  3. Pour the lime juice, lemon juice and orange juice into a large bowl and add the shrimp. Give them a stir and place in the refrigerator for 20 minutes to marinate.
  4. Add the remaining ingredients to the bowl of shrimp and stir everything together. Garnish with avocado before serving.

Notes

  • It's best to use freshly squeezed juice for this recipe, rather than bottles of lime, lemon and orange juice. With such few ingredients, you really want the flavors to shine.
  • In the video above, you'll see that I make supremes with the citrus slices. I do think this makes a difference in the final recipe and is worth the extra effort.
  • If you're wondering, this is my favorite skimmer and I use it in many recipes.
