This recipe takes me right back to my very first visit to Mexico. Serve with the traditional saltines and you will forget about this terrible cold weather.





You can leave the shrimp whole and serve it like a shrimp cocktail as an appetizer. I roughly chopped mine so I could serve it with crackers. 





   
1/2 c. chopped onion


    6
c. water


   
3/4 c. fresh lime juice, divided


    1
lb. medium shrimp


    1
c. chopped peeled cucumber


   
1/2 c. ketchup


   
1/3 c. chopped fresh cilantro


    2
tbsp. Mexican hot sauce (such as Tamazula)


    1
tbsp. olive oil


   
1/4 tsp. salt







Place chopped onion in a colander, and rinse with cold
water. Drain.


Bring 6 cups water and 1/4 cup juice to a boil in a Dutch
oven. Add shrimp; cook 3 minutes or until done. Drain and rinse with cold
water; peel shrimp. Coarsely chop if you wish to use this as a dip. Combine shrimp and
1/2 cup juice in a large bowl; cover and chill 1 hour. Stir in onion, cucumber,
and remaining ingredients. Serve immediately or chilled.
