I added some horseradish and served this on a bed of lettuce with salsa and thrououghly enjoyed it. Did not bother with the chips!

Loved the flavor of the limes and cilantro. I actually used this as a marinade for steak fajitas - absolutely wonderful!

I found the shrimp to be a little tough being "cooked" twice. I used uncooked shrimp and it turned a lovely shade of pink in the lime juice and were very tender. Its like making Ceveche.

Delectable! I served on little butter lettuce leaves with cold sesame noods (Recipe #95956). Perfect match, excellent summer meal. Will definitely be making this shrimp again and again!! Thank so much!! :)
