Cilantro Seafood Ceviche

Total Time: 2 hrs Preparation Time: 2 hrs

Ingredients

  • Servings: 6
  • 1 lb fresh or frozen uncooked shrimp, peeled
  • 1/2 lb fresh or frozen uncooked squid
  • 2 medium tomatoes, chopped
  • 1 bunch fresh cilantro, chopped, to taste
  • 10 limes, juice of, to 12
  • salt and pepper, to taste

Recipe

  • 1 cut shrimp and squid into small bite size pieces.
  • 2 place meat in a large bowl and pour in the lime juice (meat should be completely covered with the lime juice).
  • 3 cover and let soak in the refrigerator for 1-2 hours or until the meat is tender and (the whiteness of the meat will tell you that it has cooked in the acid).
  • 4 add cilantro and tomatoes and mix well.
  • 5 add salt and pepper to taste.
  • 6 place in a sealed container and chill.
  • 7 serve cold alone immediately or let soak for more flavor.
  • 8 the recipe keeps refrigerated in sealed container for 3-4 days.
  • 9 note: if you are squeamish about eating seafood cooked in mere acid (like my mom is), you may use half-cooked, blanched seafood in this recipe instead of uncooked seafood (the result will not be as tender a meat, but i have tried both, and the results are comparable).
