Zubereitung von Aguachiles
- Combine 1 cup chopped cucumber, 2-3 jalapeños (finely minced, remove seeds for less heat), 1/4 cup chopped red onion, 1/2 cup chopped cilantro, and 1 teaspoon salt in a large bowl.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the juice of 8 limes, 1/4 cup orange juice, and 1/4 cup water. Adjust the amount of lime juice to your desired level of acidity.
- Add the lime juice mixture to the cucumber mixture. Stir well.
- Add 1 pound of very cold, raw shrimp (peeled and deveined) to the marinade. Gently toss to ensure all the shrimp are coated.
- Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours, ensuring the shrimp remain chilled. The longer it marinates, the more intense the flavor will be.
- Before serving, taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Add more lime juice for extra acidity, salt for extra savoriness, or jalapeño for more heat.
- Serve immediately with tostadas or tortilla chips. Garnish with extra cilantro and lime wedges.
