Instructions
Bring a small pot of salted water to a boil. Blanch the shrimp for 2 minutes until just pink and opaque. Immediately transfer them to an ice bath to stop the cooking, then drain and chop into small, bite-sized pieces.
In a chilled glass bowl, toss the shrimp with the fresh lime juice, minced serrano, and a generous pinch of sea salt. Let it macerate in the refrigerator for 10 minutes to allow the flavors to bloom.
Gently fold in the diced tomato, cucumber, red onion, and avocado. Be careful not to mash the avocado; you want distinct, creamy cubes.
Taste and adjust seasoning with more lime juice or salt if needed. The acid should be bright and sharp, balancing the richness of the avocado.
Plate in a small chilled bowl, garnish with plenty of freshly chopped cilantro, and serve immediately while cold.
