Fresh, fresh, fresh!! Feel free to make this dish hotter by adding a seeded and finely chopped jalapeno chile pepper or a generous pinch of cayenne to the marinade in step 2. Enjoy! Ingredients:
2 lbs medium shrimp, unpeeled |
2 large plum tomatoes, chopped |
1 small red onion, finely chopped |
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice |
2 tablespoons fresh cilantro or 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped |
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil |
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon fresh ground pepper |
4 romaine lettuce leaves |
4 radishes, thinly sliced |
lime slice |
Directions:
1. Fill a large pot halfway with water and bring to a boil. Add the shrimp and cook until just opaque in the center, about 2 minutes; drain in a colander. Rinse the shrimp under cold running water; drain. Do not let the shrimp fully cook as the lime juice in the marinade will continue to cook it.
2. Peel and devein the shrimp; transfer to a large bowl. Stir in the tomatoes, onion, lime juice, cilantro or parsley, oil, cumin, salt and pepper. Cover and refrigerate at least 2 hours or up to 6 hours.
3. Place a romaine leaf on each of 4 plates. Top with onr-fourth of the shrimp mixture and the radishes. Serve with lime slices.
