Description

Camarones en aguachile is made from serrano chiles blended with lime juice, giving the dish intense heat and fresh chile flavor.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb of medium sized shrimp (453.6 grams) , shelled and de-veined
  • juice of 68 limes
  • 1/2 red onion, thinly sliced
  • 3 serranos
  • kosher or sea salt
  • Tostadas
  • avacados

Instructions

  1. Slice the shrimp down the middle so there are two moon shapes. You will likely have to go in and remove another vein with a small paring knife after splitting them.
  2. Place the shrimp in a non-reactive bowl and pour the lime serrano mixture over the shrimp. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least two hours, mixing a couple times in between. Toss with the sliced onions and serve over tostadas and top with sliced avocado.
