Instructions

  1. Combine the lime, lemon, and orange juice in a medium mixing bowl. Reserve ½ cup of the juice mixture and set aside.
  2. Cut the shrimp into ½-inch pieces and stir into the juice mixture, pushing down the shrimp so it is covered in the juice. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, stirring occasionally, or until the shrimp turns pink and opaque. Strain, discarding the liquid.
  3. Return the shrimp to the same mixing bowl. Stir in the tomatoes, onion, cilantro, jalapeno, salt, and reserved ½ cup juice mixture. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes or up to 4 hours, stirring occasionally. Gently stir in the avocado just before serving. Serve with tortilla chips.

Notes

  • To get the most juice out of your lemon, limes, and oranges, bring them to room temperature and roll them underneath your palm on the kitchen counter. This will loosen the juices in the citrus, and you’ll get more juice out of them.
  • To prevent any metallic taste in your dish, it’s best to use a glass or non-reactive bowl (stainless steel, ceramic, or plastic). Avoid using aluminum or copper bowls as they can react with citrus. 
  • You can use a serrano pepper or leave the seeds and membranes intact of your jalapeno pepper to make the shrimp ceviche spicier.
  • Feel free to add diced fruit, such as mango or pineapple, for additional sweetness. 
  • Vegetables such as diced cucumber, red bell pepper, and green onion make for a delicious addition to the ceviche. 
  • If you find red onion tastes too sharp, you can soak it in some cold water to cut some of the bite. 
  • You can add to or replace some of the shrimp with firm white fish, scallops, or octopus.
