Ingredients
1 pound medium shrimp, peeled, deveined
¼ cup (2 ounces) lime juice
½ cup (2-½ ounces) diced red onion
½ cup (2-½ ounces) diced cucumber
½ cup (2-½ ounces) diced avocado
½ cup (2-½ ounces) diced tomato
½ cup (2-½ ounces) diced jalapeno pepper
1 (15-ounce) can Pacific Northwest Canned Pears, diced, in light syrup, drained
Corn tortilla shells, for dipping
Sliced cucumber, for dipping
Chips, for dipping
Method
Poach the shrimp: Set a bowl of ice water next to your stove. Fill a medium saucepan with water and bring it to a boil. Add the shrimp and cook until just pink, about 1 minute. Use a slotted spoon to remove the shrimp and immediately dunk it into the ice water. This will stop the residual heat from overcooking the shrimp. Let it sit for about 5 minutes, then drain well. Cut shrimp into 3 to 4 pieces, similar in size to the diced pears.
Prepare the ceviche: Combine the shrimp and all remaining ingredients in a large serving bowl, mix gently to combine. Serve with corn tortilla shells, sliced cucumber, or chips for dipping, if desired.
