Ceviche makes for a won­der­ful appe­tizer option, whether you are enter­tain­ing guests or just look­ing for some­thing to spice up your game-day tail­gate, this shrimp ceviche will cer­tainly fit the bill. By char­ring the tan­ger­ine and roast­ing the gar­lic we intro­duce a round­ness to the fla­vor pro­file, soft­en­ing the sharp acid­ity and cut­ting the harsh bite of the gar­lic. I love to leave the gar­lic cloves whole in this dish, it imparts the same gar­lic fla­vor and pro­vides a sweet, roasted gar­lic sur­prise!

Try using a medium inten­sity extra vir­gin olive oil in the ceviche mari­nade, some­thing that strikes a bal­ance between light and fruity and the robust pep­pery notes of stronger olive oils.
