We LOVE shrimp recipes here! Our Grilled Shrimp is a summer favorite and one of the most requested dishes I get when I have people over for a BBQ. And our Shrimp Scampi is our comfort food language! Chili Lime Shrimp is our solution to weeknight dinners that pack flavor, ease and convenience.

 

Shrimp Ceviche can easily be made into a light dinner, a really light meal that fills you up with protein and packs so much flavor! For convenience, and because our kids LOVE shrimp as well, we opt to make this recipe with cooked shrimp. 

What is Shrimp Ceviche

Ceviche is typically a dish made with raw seafood, lime juice, a variety of herbs and other toppings. These toppings or flavoring ingredients range from avocado, mango, cu،bers, avocados , onions, garlic, and more. The idea of a ceviche is cooking seafood bits in lots of lime juice.

While cl،ically it’s made with raw shrimp that cures in salt and lemon juice, we prefer the cooked shrimp version. Both are equally tasty, I must say! 

Here’s the breakdown for this easy simple and delicious shrimp ceviche recipe today!

  • The shrimp 
  • Diced onions
  • Avocados 
  • Jalapenos (optional but SO GOOD)
  • tomatoes, diced
  • diced cu،bers
  • Lots of cilantro
  • Lemon/Lime Juice

Is the Shrimp Raw in Ceviche?

While cl،ically yes, the recipe can be made with cooked or raw shrimp. If using raw, the amount of acid in the lime juice will cure/cook the shrimp for you. Since the shrimp is cut up into small diced pieces, it needs only 30 minutes. 

However, our family preference is using cooked shrimp.
