Ingredients:
- 1 lb cooked shrimp, peeled and chopped
- 1 ripe mango, diced
- 1 cucumber, diced
- ½ red onion, finely chopped
- 1 large tomato, diced
- 1-2 habanero peppers, finely chopped (adjust based on your spice preference)
- ¼ cup fresh cilantro, chopped
- ¼ cup lime juice (about 2-3 limes)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Optional: 1 tablespoon orange juice for extra sweetness
Directions:
Prepare the shrimp:
If using cooked shrimp, chop them into bite-sized pieces. If using raw shrimp, finely chop them and marinate in lime juice for at least 30 minutes until they become opaque (for a fully cooked ceviche).
Mix the ingredients:
In a large bowl, combine the diced mango, cucumber, red onion, tomato, and habanero. Add the chopped shrimp to the mixture.
Season the ceviche:
Drizzle the ceviche with olive oil, and stir in the lime juice and optional orange juice for added sweetness. Add salt and pepper to taste.
Garnish:
Stir in fresh cilantro and adjust the seasoning to your liking.
Chill and serve:
Refrigerate the ceviche for 15-20 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. Serve chilled with tortilla chips or crispy tostadas.
Enjoy your Mango Habanero Ceviche! 🥭🌶️🍤
