MARCO'S SHRIMP AGUACHILE
Aquachile (literally, "chile water") is similar to ceviche, but it gets poured over the raw seafood like a sauce and eaten right away instead of marinating for an hour or more. Use the best-quality, freshest seafood for this dish. Recipe courtesy Chuck Hughes

Steps:
- For the grilled cactus leaves:.
- Heat a cast-iron pan over high heat. Put the salt directly on the pan and grill the cactus leaves until golden brown on both sides, about 5 minutes. Dice 1 cactus leaf and reserve for garnish.
- For the aguachile:.
- In a blender, blend the choconostle, lime juice, cucumber and chile to a coarse puree. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside. To assemble the dish, divide the cactus leaves among 4 plates. Lay the shrimp on the cactus leaves and top with the aguachile. Garnish with pomegranate seeds and diced grilled cactus leaves.
- Cook's Notes:.
- Choconostle is a small, acidic and slightly sweet fruit shaped like a lychee. You can substitute with Asian pears, mango or honeydew. You can also skip it completely and add herbs like cilantro, chives and parsley.
- Cactus leaves tastes like cucumbers and lime. If you cannot find it, you can still serve the shrimp aguachile without the cactus leaves.

AGUACHILE
I first tried aguachile with freshly caught shrimp when I was visiting the small town of Ajijic, Jalisco, Mexico. Ajijic is one of the quaint towns next to Chapala Lake, which happens to be the largest fresh water lake in Mexico. I fell in love with this super spicy cold shrimp dish, marinated in a serrano-lime juice mixture and topped with fresh red onions, avocados, and cucumbers. Serve with tostadas on the side and an optional ice cold Mexican beer to tame down the heat.

- Slice the shrimp in half (lengthwise) and remove any veins or tails. Place in a shallow serving dish in one layer if possible. Squeeze with enough lime to cover the shrimp- which will cook the shrimp, turning them slightly pink. Sprinkle with a little salt. Turn shrimp over as needed to cook both sides in the lime juice – this will take about 20 minutes.
- Thinly slice the red onion, place it in a bowl and season generously with salt. Pour just enough water to cover the onions. Optional: Add a splash of white vinegar to enhance and bring out the red color of the onion.
- Make the Aguachile Marinade: Place the ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth, for a full minute, scraping down sides as necessary. If you have excess lime juice marinating the shrimp you can use some of this in the blender to make your ½ cup.
- Pour the aguachile marinade over the shrimp and toss to coat. Drain the onions and scatter them over top, mixing them in slightly. Add cucumber or radishes if you like. Refrigerate 30 minutes or up to 4 hours. This is best served cold!
