- Place the shrimp in a large mixing bowl. Add 1 ½ cups lime juice. The shrimp should float freely in the juice. If not, add more juice.
- Cover and refrigerate until the shrimp are “cooked” –anywhere from 20 minutes to one hour. You will see the shrimp have cooked in the lime juice and are now pink! Any longer and it will toughen. Drain.
- Stir in the jicama, fresh coconut and red onion and 1/3 cup fresh lime juice. Set aside.
