Ceviche is a cool, zesty, and refreshing seafood dish made by marinating shrimp in citrus juice until firm and tender no heat required. This vibrant version combines juicy shrimp with crisp vegetables, fresh cilantro, and jalapeño for a perfect balance of brightness and heat. It’s an ideal appetizer for warm days, parties, or enjoying with crunchy tortilla chips.
