Notes
If you want to make this with fresh, raw shrimp. Add shrimp to the lime juice in a glass bowl and let sit for 15 minutes before adding all other ingredients and let sit an additional 15 minutes.
If you like more heat - consider using fresh serrano chili peppers or leave some of the veins in the jalapeno peppers (where the heat resides).
If you have a favorite Mexican spice blend - feel free to sprinkle that into the dish.
Most importantly...TASTE this dish when you first add salt and pepper. Let it sit and TASTE again. Add additional ingredients to your liking...you might want more lime juice, salt and pepper, etc.
