Shrimp Ceviche Inspired in the Beache of Nuevo Vallarta

This shrimp ceviche recipe was inspired by a vacation I took when I was young to the pacific beaches in Nayarit. There is a paradisiacal place called Bucerias Nuevo Vallarta, Mexico. The locals visit this place during the weekend and celebrate by having a feast under a ā€œpalapaā€ cheering with cold ā€œPacificoā€ beer, eating fresh seafood just caught from the sea and prepared right there by local cooks that have small restaurants along the beach. To start the feast they do it with shrimp ceviche tostadas!

INGREDIENTS

  • 1 pound of fresh pre-cooked deveined shrimp medium size
  • 1 medium size purple onion chopped finely (to avoid crying put the onion in the freezer for 5 minutes that keeps juices locked)
  • 1 garlic clove best to puree it (can use fresh garlic paste, you don’t want to garlic to show in this plate)
  • 1 large beefsteak tomato chopped finely (1 ½ mediums if not find a big one. If you don’t like tomato you can skip).
  • 1 fresh serrano chile chopped finely
  • Cilantro rough chopped (add this before serving, cilantro tends to absorb liquid and lose freshness)
  • 1 cup of lemon juice, 2 spoons of salad vinegar
  • ½ cup of extra virgin olive oil
  • Pinch of cumin
  • Salt & pepper

Preparation time: 20 minutes. Serves 8-10 servings. Approximate cost per servingĀ $2.00

For preparing the shrimp ceviche put all the ingredients of the listĀ together in a crystal bowl (with the exception of the cilantro), mix all together taste and condiment as necessary. Cover with plastic wrap refrigerate, let it sit for fewĀ minutes.

Few things to consider when preparing this dish: Can use frozen pre cooked, deveined shrimp. If you use this kind of shrimps defrost partially using cold running water, colder the better and the safest. Shrimp temperature is very important to avoid bacteria.

Shrimp ceviche tastes absolutely delicious, sounds not that easy to prepare but it is not, you will hit a home run!

This shrimp ceviche recipe is great for parties as a finger food or to start a meal looking fancy.
