A refreshing and flavorful Mexican shrimp cocktail, perfect for any occasion.
Peel and devein the shrimp, then cook them in boiling water until pink and opaque.
Cooking shrimp just until they turn pink ensures they remain tender and juicy.
Dice the avocado, cucumber, red onion, celery, and tomatoes into small, even pieces.
Uniformly sized pieces make the cocktail visually appealing and easier to eat.
In a glass bowl, combine the cooked shrimp, diced vegetables, and chopped cilantro.
Mix gently to avoid mashing the avocado.
Squeeze the lime juice over the mixture and add the ketchup and hot sauce. Stir to combine.
Adjust the amount of hot sauce to suit your spice preference.
Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld.
Chilling enhances the flavors and makes the dish refreshing.
Serve the shrimp cocktail in individual glasses or bowls, garnished with lime wedges.
Serving in clear glasses showcases the vibrant colors of the dish.
