Crab Ceviche Recipe
This Homemade Crab Ceviche recipe makes for a great appetizer and if you are a bit cautious like I am when it comes to food, you’ll be happy to know that all meats in this one are cooked.
I love ceviche, but only my version because this homemade crab ceviche recipe contains no raw fish. This makes a great party dip and has a very fresh and fun flavor to it.
Ceviche Ingredients:
½ cup imitation crab (or the real stuff, if you have access to it!)
½ mini precooked salad shrimp
1 cup skinned and diced cucumber
1 cup finely diced celery
1 cup finely diced sweet red bell pepper
1 finely diced jalapeño, seeds removed
1 sweet onion finely diced
3-5 Tbsp of fresh cilantro
Juice from 2 lemons and 2 limes
1 Tbsp tapatio
1 Tbsp vinegar
3 Tbsp ketchup
1 avocado*
1 cup strained and rinsed black beans
1 cup strained and rinsed sweet corn
2 roma tomatoes diced
2 radishes finely diced*
A pinch of salt and sugar to taste
*optional add ins
How to make Ceviche:
Dice up all your vegetable ingredients as well as your crab.
Add all the ingredients to a large mixing bowl.
Add lemon and lime juice, tapatio, ketchup and vinegar to bowl and mix.
Season with salt and sugar to taste. Start with a pinch each.
Finally, add in your shrimp and crab and you are done. Enjoy with tortilla chips.
I’m a huge fan of party foods and if you are putting on any kind of event, this one is great for everything from tailgate parties to fancy dinners!
I have a few other favorite appetizer tricks up my sleeve including my go-to Hot Spinach and Artichoke Dip recipe and if you need something really easy and fun to throw on the table, this Easy Jalapeno Poppers recipe will definitely do the trick!
In fact, all three of these recipes go very well together!
