- In a glass bowl, combine the shrimp and lime juice. Ensure the shrimp is fully submerged in the lime juice.

Notes
For a milder flavor, remove the seeds and membranes from the jalapeño before mincing. You can also add a splash of hot sauce for extra heat. Serve immediately for the best flavor and texture.
