Ingredients
  

For the ceviche
  • 1 lb shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 1/2 cup lime juice
  • 1 ripe mango, diced
  • 1 medium avocado, diced
  • 1/4 medium red onion, finely chopped
  • 1 whole jalapeño, minced (optional) optional for those who like it spicy!
  • 1/4 cup cilantro, chopped
  • to taste salt and pepper

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a bowl, combine the shrimp and lime juice. Let it marinate for about 15-20 minutes until the shrimp turn opaque.
  2. Add the diced mango, avocado, red onion, jalapeño, and cilantro to the bowl.
  3. Gently mix everything together, ensuring not to mash the avocado. We want chunks, not mush!
  4. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  5. Serve chilled, optionally with tortilla chips or on its own.

Notes

This ceviche is best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in the fridge for up to 2 days. Hold off on adding the avocado until just before serving for the perfect creamy texture.
