Preparation
Rinse shrimp, pat dry, and chop into pieces. Transfer to a glass or plastic container, then add lime juice, salt, and habanero pepper. Refrigerate for at least 3 hours, stirring occasionally, to allow juices to thoroughly "cook" shrimp.
After 3 hours, check shrimp for color—the shrimp should go from being translucent to opaque. If they are not quite there, refrigerate for 1 more hour.
After shrimp have finished "cooking," stir in radish, cucumber, shallot, and cilantro. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Transfer ceviche to a bowl lined with butter lettuce (optional) and garnish with sliced avocado and fresh cilantro.
Serve immediately with tortilla chips, or reserve in refrigerator for up to 1 hour.
