Shrimp Ceviche



Yesterday was labor day and we went over to my mom's house to have fun with the family and jump in the pool. I wanted to make something that is great as an appetizer and a meal. Yesterday was more as an appetizer since we wanted to also grill. This recipe is very simple and what I like the most is that we cut the cooking time by more than half by starting with frozen cooked shrimp. Is great on  hot summer days.

Ingredients:

  • 2 Cucumbers
  • 1/2 Medium White Onion
  • 4 Roma Tomatoes
  • 1 Bag of Frozen Cooked Shrimp
  • 6 Small Lemons
  • 1/2 Cilantro Bunch
  • Salt to taste
Directions:

  1. Dice tomatoes, cucumbers, and onion.
  2. Defrost shrimp in water. Don't cook the shrimp again since it will become like rubber.
  3. Juice lemons and strain juice before adding.
  4. Chop shrimp into small chunks
  5. Chop cilantro and add to bowl
  6. Mix all ingredients well
  7. Season with salt
You can enjoy this recipe with tostadas or chips. The picture below also has avocado on the top and Valentina Salsa.
