Ingredients
  

Pico de Gallo recipe (this is a doubled recipe)

  • 4 Roma tomatoes, diced
  • 1/2 red or yellow onion (I use either)
  • 1 jalapeño, without seeds, diced
  • 1 lime, juiced
  • 1/2 cup chopped cilantro, loosely packed
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp chili powder
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1/2 tsp salt (more to taste as needed)

To add to make ceviche

  • 1 pound shrimp, cooked and chopped
  • 2 peaches or nectarines, chopped
  • 2 avocados cubed
  • 1 lime, juiced
  • 1/2 lemon, juiced
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 12 mint leaves, diced
  • 1/4 cup cilantro, chopped

Instructions
 

  • Cook the shelled and deveined shrimp by boiling them for a couple of minutes or sautéeing them in olive oil (my preferred method). Cook until done, being careful not to overcook as the citrus juices will further "cook" the shrimp.
  • Chop the shrimp into small chunks and let them sit to cool down while you make the pico.
  • Make the pico and add the peaches (or nectarines), extra lemon and lime juice, mint leaves, and cilantro.
  • Combine the pico/peach/vegetable mix with the shrimp.
  • Let this sit for at least 20 minutes.
  • Cube the avocado and add it to the mix, lightly stirring.
  • Taste to see if you need to add any more salt or pepper.
  • Serve and enjoy!
