S'NOODS Loco with Ceviche
- 1/2 pound raw small shrimp (rock shrimp, bay shrimp, or cocktail shrimp), peeled and deveined, rinsed and patted dry
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon fish sauce
- Zest of 1 lime
- Juice of 4 limes
- 1/4 cup orange juice
- 2 scallions, thinly sliced
- 1 medium tomato, chopped
- 1 jalapeno, seeded and finely chopped
- 1/4 cup finely chopped pineapple or mango
- 1 medium avocado, diced
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
- Salt to taste
- 4 bags of S’NOODS single-serve bags
Steps:
Make Cilantro Lime Yogurt
- Combine the yogurt, lime zest and juice, garlic clove, cilantro, and a large pinch of salt in a food processor. Blend until most of the cilantro is blended into the yogurt.
- Taste and adjust salt to liking. Stir in chili crisp. Place in fridge until ready to use.
Make S'NOODS Loco with Ceviche
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil over high heat, then generously salt like the sea.
- Turn off the heat, then add the shrimp and poach until the shrimp are opaque and just cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes.
- Drain the shrimp, then transfer to a bowl of ice water until cool enough to handle.
- In a medium bowl, combine shrimp, soy sauce, fish sauce, lime zest and juice, orange juice, scallions, tomato, jalapeno, and pineapple or mango.
- Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or up to 4 hours. Taste and adjust seasonings to your liking.
- When ready to serve, stir in the avocado and cilantro.
- Lay each S’NOODS chip bag on its side and carefully cut them open lengthwise. (Optional: You can slightly crush each bag using your hands before opening if you want smaller chip bites.
- Spoon a generous amount of ceviche mixture into each open chip bag.
- Gently toss and mix the ceviche with the chips until combined. Serve immediately with a drizzle of the cilantro lime yogurt, if desired.
Storing
- You can store any leftover ceviche that you didn’t use on the chips in an airtight container for up to 1 day.
Tips
- Make it vegetarian: Substitute the shrimp with diced tofu, cooked chickpeas, quartered heart of palm, or grilled vegetables.
- Don't spoon the ceviche over the chips until you're ready to serve as the chips will get soggy over time.
- Lightly crushing the chips before opening the bags helps them absorb the flavors of the ceviche better.
- Marinating the shrimp in the citrus juices for at least 30 minutes allows the flavors to meld and the shrimp to "cook" in the acidity.
- Refrigerate the ceviche for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to fully develop and the shrimp to marinate properly.
- Experiment with different toppings such as avocado, chopped tomatoes, cilantro, shredded cheese, hot sauce, and more.
- You can swap items for pre-made options like tomato for pice de gallo or pineapple and tomato for a pineapple salsa.
