Shrimp Corn Ceviche Recipes

EASY SHRIMP CEVICHE

Steps:

• Combine cucumber, tomatoes, red onion, serrano peppers, and cilantro in a bowl. Add 1 teaspoon salt and squeeze 1 lime. Gently mix and set aside.
• Squeeze the remaining limes into another bowl. Add remaining salt and pepper.
• Bring a 1- to 2-quart pot of water to a boil. Place shrimp into the boiling water for 45 seconds. Quickly remove from the water using a strainer.
• Chop the partially cooked shrimp into small pieces and add to the bowl with the seasoned lime mixture. Let sit for 20 minutes. Combine with the cucumber mixture and top with avocados.

ROCK SHRIMP CEVICHE

Steps:

• Bring 6 cups water to a boil in a large pot. Add the peppercorns and lime and return to a boil. Add the shrimp, then turn off the heat. Stir and let sit until the shrimp is pink, 1 to 2 minutes. Immediately transfer the shrimp to an ice bath. When cold, drain thoroughly.
• Place the shrimp, Pickled Peppers, lime juice, orange juice, onions, cilantro, scallions, ketchup and salt to taste in a large bowl. Stir until completely combined, then serve.
• Heat the vinegar, salt and sugar in a small saucepan over medium heat until the salt and sugar dissolve. Pour the brine into a heatproof container and add 1 cup ice. Stir until cool. Place the jalapeños, red peppers and yellow peppers in another container and pour the brine over them. Let sit for at least 6 hours. The pickles will keep, covered in the refrigerator, for about 1 month.

SHRIMP CEVICHE

Steps:

• Place the shrimp in a large mixing bowl. Add 1/2 cup lime juice and let stand for 15 minutes so the shrimp can "cook" in the lime juice (any less and it won't cook, any more and it toughens).
• Meanwhile, in a separate large mixing bowl, mix the remaining 1/2 cup lime juice, cucumbers, tomatoes, cilantro, red onions and serrano chile to incorporate evenly. Transfer the mixed vegetables into the shrimp bowl and mix well to incorporate. Season the ceviche with some salt. Serve with saltine crackers, bottled hot sauce and lime wedges if desired.

SHRIMP CEVICHE IN TOASTED CORN CUPS

Steps:

• Toasted Corn Cups: Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• In a small bowl, combine oil and lime zest. Warm the tortillas in a skillet over medium-high heat for 20 seconds per side. Transfer the warmed tortillas to a work surface. Brush both sides with lime oil and sprinkle liberally with salt.
• Use a 2-inch round cookie cutter to cut 2 to 3 circles from each tortilla. Press each circle into a 24-hole mini muffin pan, allowing the edges to curl decoratively. Bake for 5 to 7 minutes until the cups are crisp, but not brown. Remove from the oven and transfer to a wire rack to cool while making ceviche.
• Ceviche: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over medium heat. Add the shrimp and remove from the heat. Stirring constantly, until the shrimp are just pink and opaque, about 60 to 90 seconds. Remove the shrimp with a slotted spoon and to a large bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process. While the shrimp are cooling, put the ear of corn on a high burner flame and allow it to lightly char, rotating frequently to char all sides. Remove from the heat and slice the grilled kernels from cob. Transfer the corn to a large bowl and add red onion, watermelon cubes, orange segments, orange juice, lemon juice, cilantro and jalapeno. Roughly chop the cooled shrimp and add it to the bowl. Season with salt, to taste. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes to allow flavors to develop, but not so long as to let the acid in the citrus to continue cooking the shrimp.
• When ready to serve, use a fork to smash avocado together with lime juice in a small bowl. Spoon a scant teaspoon of avocado into the bottom of a toasted corn cup and top with some ceviche. Repeat with remaining corn cups. Arrange on a serving platter and serve immediately.
