Step 1
Dice shrimp into 0.5-inch pieces. Place in a bowl with lime juice, salt, and pepper.
Step 2
Stir in red onion, jalapeño, and cilantro. Cover and refrigerate 15–18 minutes.
Step 3
Shrimp will turn opaque and firm — the lime juice cooks it. Taste and adjust salt.
Step 4
Spoon ceviche into bowls with a little of the citrus liquid. Serve with chips and crackers.
