Ingredients

2-3 pounds shrimp, medium to large (30-35 per pound) cooked and chopped into bite-sized pieces
2 cups lime juice, fresh squeezed
1 cup lemon juice, fresh squeezed
1 cup orange juice, fresh squeezed
1 (14.5 ounce) can Tuttorosso® Petite Diced Tomatoes, drained
1 small red onion, chopped
1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and membrane removed, chopped small (leave seeds if you want spicy)
Chopped fresh cilantro, about a bunch
Salt and black pepper to taste
2 large avocados, diced
2 cucumbers, diced
Tortillas or tortilla chips

Instructions

Step one

In a plastic bag with a seal or in a deep glass or ceramic bowl, place all ingredients except avocado and cucumber. Stir to combine and make sure juices cover shrimp. Marinate in refrigerator for 2 hours. After an hour, remove from refrigerator and stir to ensure ingredients are evenly marinated.

Step two

Just before serving, add avocado and cucumber. Serve with warmed tortillas for ceviche tacos or with tortilla chips.

*Cook’s Note: You may substitute the shrimp with a mild white fish such as halibut, cod or tilapia or any firm white fish will work. If using raw fish, increase marinate time to 4 hours, stirring after 2 hours.
