Aguachile
Zesty Mexican shrimp cured in lime and chili, similar to ceviche — keeping the marinating time short (10-15 minutes) is deliberate, since aguachile is meant to be barely cured, not fully opaque like a classic ceviche.
Ingredients
Instructions
Blend the lime juice with the serrano chili until smooth to make the aguachile base.
Pour over the butterflied shrimp and let sit for 10-15 minutes, just until the edges turn opaque.
Do not over-marinate, since the acid will keep cooking the shrimp the longer it sits.
Add the sliced cucumber and red onion, and serve immediately, well chilled.
