Shrimp Ceviche Recipe
Description
This Shrimp Ceviche recipe features cooked, peeled shrimp combined with a variety of diced vegetables—including red onion, jalapeños without seeds, cucumber, and Roma tomatoes—as well as chopped cilantro to add herbaceous notes. The addition of ripe mango and avocado introduces contrasting sweetness and creamy texture. The shrimp and produce are tossed with a dressing made from lime juice, orange juice, and lime zest, which imparts vibrant acidity and citrus aroma.
Once combined, the ceviche is chilled to meld flavors, traditionally served cold. The recipe advises omitting avocado if refrigerating beyond 30 minutes to prevent browning, maintaining freshness and visual appeal. The dish pairs naturally with tortilla chips, offering a crisp contrast to the soft seafood and fruit.
