Directions

1
Butterfly the shrimp, add to a bowl, cover in lime juice and let it rest in the fridge for 1 hour.
2
While the shrimp is “cooking”, peel and slice the cucumber and onion but keep the cucumber peels, we will use them later and set it to the side.
3
After one hour, remove about a cup of lime juice from the shrimp and add it to a blender along with the cucumber peels, garlic, serrano, cilantro, 3 dashes of salsa maggi, (this is the magic secret ingredient, do not skip) salt & pepper to taste, and blend.
4
Combine all ingredients together, serve on a tostada and enjoy!
