Spring is just around the corner and before we know it, summer and its ominous heat will be at our back door. In fact, we’re already beginning to sweat out above 85 F temperatures here in Southern California.

When the days become unbearably hot, the last place I want to be is in the kitchen firing up the stove. All I’d want is to lounge by the poolside, with an ice-cold Corona on one hand and a big bowl of this shrimp ceviche on the other.

Refreshingly tangy, slightly spicy, and served up with creamy slices of avocado and crisp tortilla chips, this ceviche is truly a delicious way to cool off this coming summer.

Shrimp Ceviche is a refreshing appetizer or summer dinner that's fresh and slightly spicy

In traditional ceviche, raw seafood such as fish, octopus or shrimp is cured in a bath of citrus juices such as lime or lemon juice and then flavored with chili peppers, cilantro, onions, and salt. As the seafood is not cooked in heat, it is imperative to use the freshest ingredients and consume the dish immediately for best flavor and food safety.

If you want to keep the ceviche a few days longer or eating “raw” food is a concern, you can pre-cook the shrimp by blanching in salted, boiling water for about 1 to 2 minutes or just until color changes to pink before tossing in the rest of the ingredients. Enjoy!
