Notes
*If you do not want to soak the shrimp in the lime juice overnight then you can soak it the same day the ceviche is made. It will take anywhere from 1 to 3 hours for the shrimp to cook in the lime juice. Just check on the shrimp every hour until it is no longer opaque. You will know when the shrimp is done once it has turned pink.
Here's another option:
To save time, you can also use frozen pre-cooked shrimp. You will need 16 oz of the Large Frozen Cooked Shrimp and 1 whole lime. Place the frozen cooked shrimp in a bowl of cold water and let it sit until thawed. Then drain and chop the shrimp into smaller pieces. Place the shrimp in a bowl with the juice from 1 whole lime. Let the shrimp soak in the lime juice for 30 minutes. Drain and discard the lime juice. Then add the shrimp in with the rest of the other ingredients: cilantro, garlic, jalapeno, tomatoes and red onions. Continue with the steps in the recipe.
