15-Minute Ceviche de Camaron (Easy Shrimp Ceviche)
Ceviche de camaron is a 15-minute shrimp ceviche made with red onion, cucumber, tomato, cilantro, and citrus. The shrimp cures in lime juice until tender, creating a no-cook dish packed with fresh, bright flavor. Serve it chilled with mariquitas or tostones for an easy appetizer that feels special but couldn’t be simpler.
Ingredients
- 1 lb raw shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 1/2 cup finely diced red onion
- 2/3 cup finely diced cucumber
- 1/2 cup finely diced tomato
- 1/4 cup finely chopped cilantro
- 1/2 cup fresh lime juice, (from 3-4 limes)
- 1/2 cup fresh orange juice, (from 1-2 oranges)
- Salt + pepper to taste
Instructions
- Cut the shrimp into small 1/2-inch pieces. Transfer them to a bowl.
- Add the red onion, cucumber, tomato, cilantro, lime juice, orange juice, and salt + pepper to taste. Gently stir to combine with the shrimp.
- Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and chill for about 15 minutes, but no more than 30 minutes.
- Since the shrimp is cut into smaller pieces, it cures/cooks quickly. The shrimp is ready when it's no longer grey or translucent. The shrimp should look pink and feel firm to the touch.
- Drain the liquid. Serve the ceviche chilled with lime wedges, tortilla chips, tostones, plantain chips, and/or stuffed into sliced avocados. Enjoy!
