Ingredients

  • 1 English cucumber, peeled
  • 1 pound fresh, head-on jumbo shrimp
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more to taste
  • 1 cup freshly squeezed lime juice
  • 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
  • 2 to 3 fresh serrano chiles, sliced

Instructions

  1. Cut the cucumber into thin rectangular slices, about 3 inches long, and divide among 4 small plates.
