Shrimp Ceviche

Hey Guys!! Hope all is well!!
I know I haven't blogged in a while... Months in fact. Truth is.. I MISSED IT!
I was thinking to myself, "Self.. what new recipe should I share on my blog next?" ...
I always want to share recipes that not only I enjoy, but ones I feel you will enjoy too.
This passed weekend I had a craving for some Shrimp Ceviche, so i made some.. posted the picture of it on facebook and I do many of my dishes  and got a few request for the recipe...

In case you're not too familiar with this dish, let me tell you a little bit about it.
It's a fresh seafood dish. popular in the coastal reagion of the Americas,Especially South and Central America.  The dish is typically made from fresh raw fish ( we're using fresh raw shrimp today) marinated in citrus juices like lemon or lime, spices and other condiments.
Growing up, this was one of my favorite things to eat and one of my Uncles who is also a Chef, would make it the BEST! Here's my version of it.....

 Here it goes!!!! Hope you like it!!!!! :)
