Ingredients
Instructions
Place the cleaned shrimp in a shallow bowl or baking dish with 1 cup of lime juice and ½ teaspoon of kosher salt. Mix together to combine and cover. Refrigerate for 30 minutes, stirring halfway through to ensure the shrimp is evenly coated.
Make the salsa marinade by adding the serrano peppers, cilantro, and the remaining ½ cup lime juice to a blender. Blend until smooth.
Pour the marinade through a fine mesh strainer and into the bowl of shrimp. Stir to combine. Place back in the refrigerator and marinate for an additional 30 minutes.
Add the red onion, cucumber, and avocado into the bowl of shrimp and lightly toss to combine. Taste and adjust salt if needed.
Serve aguachiles with tostadas or tortilla chips.
