Instructions
- 1
In a large bowl, combine the shrimp pieces with the lime juice, lemon juice, and orange juice. Stir to coat, then press the shrimp down so they are mostly submerged. Cover and refrigerate for 25–30 minutes, until the shrimp are opaque throughout and firm to the touch with no translucent gray areas remaining — the acid will have fully cured them.

While the shrimp cure, place the diced red onion in a small bowl of cold water and let it soak for 10 minutes, then drain. This removes some of the sharp bite.
