Stir in cucumber, onion and chiles. Refrigerate for 1 hour. 3.Stir tomato, avocado, chopped cilantro, oil and 1/4 teaspoon salt into the shrimp mixture. Let stand at room temperature for 30 minutes before serving. Garnish with cilantro leaves, if desired.

Kitchen Tip: A nonreactive bowl or pan-stainless-steel, enamel-coated or glass-is necessary when cooking with acidic foods, such as lemon, to prevent the food from reacting with the pan. Reactive pans, such as aluminum and cast-iron, can impart an off color and/or off flavor.
