Homemade fried tortilla chips and ceviche in my house on Fridays. It’s a glorious. glorious way to spend a Friday.

I find shrimp to be one of the best, and easiest, ceviches to make at home. The shrimp take a longer time to cook in the acid (lime juice) and can turn tough as a result, so now, I’m quickly flash poaching them in some boiling salted water before submerging them in lime juice, cilantro, extra jalapeno, red onion, cucumber, tomatoes, and salt/pepper. After its chilled and soaked up the flavors, I add avocado at the last second.

Perfection.

Always fry your own chips. You won’t regret the work.
