Light and fresh, shrimp ceviche celebrates the sweet brininess of raw seafood.
Be sure to give this dish plenty of time to marinate, allowing your shrimp to swim in a pool of citrus, onion, garlic, and jalapeño. Not only will this enrich the taste of your ceviche, but the citric acid in lemon and lime also changes the protein structure of shrimp and “cooks” it.
