Ingredients
- 1 lb. large shrimp peeled, deveined, and chopped
- 1 large large red jalapeno seeded and diced*
- 1/3 cup fresh orange juice
- 1/3 cup fresh lime juice
- 1/3 cup fresh lemon juice
- ¾ cup fresh strawberries sliced
- ¼ cup fresh pineapple chopped
- 1 large large avocado seeded and diced
- ¼ cup fresh cilantro chopped
- sea salt and black pepper to taste
- 2 large large limes cut into wedges or slices, to serve
- *Can use green jalapeño if desired
Instructions
- Add the shrimp and jalapeño to a large glass or other non-reactive bowl. Pour in the orange, lime, and lemon juice and gently stir to combine, ensuring all the shrimp is submerged in the liquid.
- Cover with plastic wrap and place in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
- After 30 minutes, remove the cover and gently turn the shrimp mixture to ensure all ingredients are evenly distributed in the juice. Cover and return to the refrigerator to continue marinating for another 15-30 minutes or until the shrimp is “cooked” through.
- Tip: Do not “overcook” or the shrimp will become tough.
- Remove from the refrigerator and add the strawberries, pineapple, avocado, and fresh cilantro to the bowl. Season with salt and black pepper, to taste, and toss to combine.
- Spoon the ceviche into individual serving bowls with a slotted spoon to drain excess liquid. Serve immediately with the sliced lime for squeezing. Enjoy!
