Shrimp Ceviche

About This Recipe:

In the summer, I absolutely love eating ceviche. My go to order at restaurants is the classic white fish ceviche, but it can be hard to source sushi grade fish for ceviche at home. That’s where this easy and quick shrimp ceviche recipe comes in. This dish has all of my favorite elements of ceviche- the tangy lime juice, crunchy red onions, and cold, fresh seafood, but with cooked shrimp. Aside from quickly poaching shrimp, and chopping up all of the ingredients, this recipe just needs to marinate in the fridge. I highly recommend eating this shrimp ceviche with tortilla chips for the most delicious appetizer.

Enjoy!
