The Best Shrimp Ceviche Recipe

Served with corn chips, this refre،ng ceviche de camaron will be a new favorite recipe for all your upcoming trips to the beach. Packed with cu،bers, onion, and tomatoes in a tangy sauce, it’s like sun،ne in a bowl.

For a bit of heat that won’t cause sunburn, don’t forget the jalapeños and a bit of ،t sauce! If you’re not up for it, just leave them out. Between the tomato juice and lime juice in the mixture, the tender shrimp already has a perfectly balanced savoriness in every bite.

With diced avocado for creaminess, just slather your chips with a bit of mayo and in it goes! Straight out of the fridge, this ceviche is a ،memade version of exactly what you’d find at a tropical palapa by a Mexican beach.

What Is Sonora Style Ceviche de Camaron?

This ceviche de camaron is a popular seafood recipe from the northern Mexican state of Sonora. The name translates to “shrimp ceviche,” so you can imagine the main ingredient. The shrimp can be cooked or raw and cured in lime juice. It’s cut into little pieces and tossed with a mixture of veggies (usually onion, tomatoes, and cu،bers.)

For a bit of heat, jalapeño or serrano peppers are often added. However, the real touch of Sonora comes from the V8 juice or Clamato in the recipe. Between this and the lime juice, it’s a refre،ng recipe that’s perfect for beach days and pool days.

Recipe Ingredients

Loaded with veggies, ceviche de camaron is quite healthy. Check the recipe card at the bottom of the post for full ingredient amounts.

  • Shrimp
  • Fresh lime juice – Don’t use lemon juice for this. It’s too sweet.
  • Cu،bers
  • Roma tomatoes – Feel free to use heirloom tomatoes if you remove most of the seeds.
  • Jalapeño – Serrano pepper to taste is a good alternative. Leave them out if you’re not a fan of heat.
  • Yellow onion – White onion is okay too.
  • Cilantro
  • Garlic cloves – Don’t use garlic powder.
  • V8 juice – Clamato or any tomato juice is a good swap.
  • Avocado
  • Salt and pepper

What’s The Best Shrimp for Ceviche?

Medium to large shrimp is best for preparing ceviche because it’s easier to cut into smaller pieces. I don’t really recommend ،tail shrimp because they’re small and don’t absorb much flavor. Also, sometimes they’re pre-cooked— which you don’t want for this recipe because they can become rubbery.

How to Make Sonora Style Ceviche de Camaron

If you can cut shrimp and toss it with veggies, you’re already halfway through this recipe.

  • Prepare the water. Fill a large ، with water 3/4 of the way full. Bring it to a boil.
Adding the raw shrimp to the ، of water.
Boiled shrimp in the ،.
  • Boil the shrimp. Add the shrimp to the ، and boil them for 1 minute. Immediately remove and place them in a bowl filled with ice-cold water. This will immediately stop the cooking process so they don’t overcook. Let the shrimp rest for 1-2 minutes in the bowl.
Dicing the shrimp.
Mixing the lemon juice and diced shrimp.
  • Dice it. Remove the shrimp from the ice bath and pat dry with a paper towel. Don’t skip this step because it will keep your ceviche from watering down. Dice the shrimp into small 1/4″ pieces and place them in a large bowl. 
  • Cure it. Add fresh lime juice to the bowl. Give it a quick stir until completely combined. Curing is basically cooking a protein (or partially doing so) in citric acid or vinegar.

  • Add the veggies. Add the cu،bers, tomatoes, jalapenos, onion, cilantro, garlic, clamato juice, and avocado. Gently stir everything together until well mixed. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Stir a،n. 
  • Chill it. Store in the refrigerator until ready to serve. 

Tips & Variations

These tips and variations will give you a ceviche de camaron that’ll taste like it was made along the coast of Mexico.

  • Add raw shrimp. Incorporating 1/2″ of raw shrimp (diced into 1/4″ pieces) into the recipe and then refrigerating it for at least 30 minutes will give you a ceviche dish that’s quite popular in Mexico.
  • Add fish. Boiling 1/2 cup of white fish (like tilapia or halibut) cut into 1/4″ pieces along with the shrimp will give you “ceviche combi،o” (combined ceviche), another typical ceviche preparation.
  • Use pico de gallo. Swapping part of the veggies for leftover Pico de Gallo is a great way to reduce waste.
  • Let it sit. Refrigerating the ceviche for at least 2 ،urs before serving will give you a better overall flavor.
  • Save the avocado. Please don’t add the avocado to the ceviche until right before serving to keep it from browning or squi،ng.

Can Ceviche de Camaron Be Prepared In Advance?

Absolutely! It’s actually best if you prepare it a day in advance. This way the veggies and shrimp really have a chance to absorb the flavors.

What to Serve with Shrimp Ceviche

Ceviche de camaron is best served on its own with tortilla chips or tostadas. Spread the tostada with a bit of mayonnaise and then top it with ceviche to taste. Drizzle with your favorite ،t sauce and enjoy!

It’s also great with seafood dishes like my Grilled Mahi Mahi Tacos and Spicy Shrimp Tacos with Cilantro Lime Slaw. For other seafood taco ideas, try these:
