Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound frozen peeled cooked shrimp (16-to-20-count), defrosted tails removed, cut into 1/4-inch pieces.
- 1 cup lime juice
- 1 medium white onion, chopped
- 1 cucumber, chopped
- 2 avocados, chopped
- 1 tomato, chopped
- 1 jalepeno, diced (optional)
- 1/4 cup cilantro
Instructions
- In a shallow baking dish combine shrimp, lime juice and onions. Allow to marinade in the refrigerator for a minimum of 20 minutes.
- Reserve 1/4 cup of marinade and discard the rest using a strainer. In a clean bowl combine marinated onions and shrimp, cucumber, avocado, tomato, jalepeno, and cilantro. Stir to combine. Allow flavors to meld for 10 minutes prior to serving. If the mixture seems dry, add a TBS at a time of the reserved marinade.
- Serve as a lettuce wrap, with corn chips or plantains (like salsa), or wrapped in a corn tortilla with rice.
Notes
- I haven't tried it but I suspect 10-12 dashes of hot sauce would take this recipe to the next level.
