Recipe of Chorito-shrimp ceviche

Vida Recetas Editorial

Ceviche chorito-shrimp is a seafood variation that combines the tenderness of shrimp with the intense flavor of choritos, also known as mussels. It is a fresh and citrusy dish, perfect for hot days or as a light appetizer for a family meal. Originating from the Pacific coast, this ceviche has earned its place in Latin American cuisine for its balance of acidity, saltiness, and the herbal touch of cilantro.

This recipe is ideal for those seeking a simple preparation, without complex cooking, as the seafood is thawed and cured in lemon juice. The bell peppers add color and crunchy texture, while the red onion in julienne, previously washed with salt, softens its flavor. The result is a vibrant dish with a tangy kick that awakens the palate.

It is served cold, accompanied by sweet potato, corn, or tostadas, and pairs perfectly with dry white wine or a cold beer. If you prefer a spicier touch, you can add chili or rocoto to taste.
