I first had ceviche years ago in Lima, Peru, and was blown away by the simplicity, yet bold and impactful flavors. The act of marinating seafood in acid to cook was new to me, but it made complete sense, the acid from citruses like lime and lemon beautifully denatures the protein to cook the seafood without heat. A variation of this dish is made all along the South American Pacific coast. In Mexico it’s Aguachile, shrimp ceviche along with cucumber, radish, red onion, jicama, lots of citrus, avocado, cilantro, serrano\/jalape\u00f1o is tossed and served on top of a tostada, a perfect no cook light lunch or dinner for these hot summer days. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Finding super fresh raw shrimp can be a bit of a challenge back home in America. Though raw frozen is easily available and works fine as I did here for convenience, but if you’re concerned about eating or serving raw seafood please go ahead and lightly blanch or stir fry the shrimp in boiling water or frying pan for a few minutes. This will cook and kill any microbes. Once the shrimp is heat cooked, cool, toss it with lime juice and follow the recipe and you’ll have the same result.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For the tostada, I had such a challenge finding already made tostada. An easy solution is to brush corn tortilla with little oil and bake them for a few minutes until they are toasty and crispy. I really hope you’ll give this recipe a try because its perfect for these hot summer days, light, nutritious and so delicious. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
