Mexican Shrimp Salad

 
   
   
   
Ingredients -  
   

4 medium Tomatoes, diced
1 bunch Green Onions
1 bunch Cilantro
1 pound Medium Shrimp, peeled (reserve shells)
1 jar Clam Juice
2 table Ketchup
Juice of 2 Limes
Tabasco Sauce

 
   
Preparation:  
   

Wash cilantro, chop leaves and discard stems. Mix with tomatoes and onions and set aside. Boil shrimp in clam juice (and enough water to cover the shrimp) until pink. Remove shrimp and chill. Add shells to the liquid and simmer for 10 minutes. Strain the liquid and reserve.

To serve: In a tall glass, layer shrimp and tomato mixture in several layers. Add ketchup, lime juice and tabasco sauce (to taste) to the reserved clam liquid. Pour liquid over the shrimp to cover it. Chill until ready to serve.
