- 1 medium white onion
- Juice of 6 limes
- juice of 4 oranges
- 4 medium Plum Roma tomatoes
- 2 tablespoons Mexican oregano
- 12 sprigs cilantro which will make approximately 1 cup loosely packed chopped cilantro

- 1 avocado
- 1 lg. package saltine crackers
Instructions
- Place the shrimp in a large mixing bowl and then squeeze the juice of the 4 limes and 4 oranges over the shrimp.
- Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and put it in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
- While the shrimp is marinating prep the tomato, onion, and cilantro.
- Remove the pulp and seeds from the tomato.
- Chop the tomato into ⅜ inch pieces, the onion into ¼ pieces, and chop the cilantro finely.
- Remove the shrimp from the fridge and then add all of the remaining ingredients except the avocado.
- Mix all of the ingredients together gently so that the tomato maintains its shape.
- Just before serving add the avocado to the ceviche and mix very gently to incorporate.
- Serve in an attractive bowl with saltine crackers on the side.
Notes
- Substitutions
- Storage
- If you like your ceviche spicy, add 1 very finely chopped serrano chile. Remove the seeds and veins before chopping.
- 1 cup of chopped cucumber, mango or pineapple is a nice addition but don't add all at the same time. That's flavor overload.
- You can prepare it without cilantro if you prefer. Not everybody likes the taste of cilantro.
- Ceviche is also great served on a tostada.
- It will last for one day in the fridge but is best eaten immediately.
