Shrimp Ceviche Lettuce Cups

✓ USDA-verified nutrition data

Ingredients

• 8 oz Shrimp
• 3 Lime
• 1/2 Cucumber
• 1/4 Red onion
• 1/2 Jalapeño
• 6 leaves Butter lettuce

Steps

1. Bring a pot of salted water to a boil; poach the shrimp 2–3 minutes until just pink.
2. Shock in ice water to stop the cooking, then chop into 1/2-inch pieces.
3. Toss the shrimp with the juice of 3 limes — it should taste distinctly tart.
4. Fold in the diced cucumber, red onion, and jalapeño.
5. Refrigerate 15 minutes so the flavors meld and the shrimp firms up.
6. Taste and add salt — ceviche needs assertive seasoning.
7. Spoon into the lettuce cups and serve ice cold.
