Does Lime Juice Cook Raw Shrimp?
No, lime juice does not cook raw shrimp. Lime juice can be used in a dish like ceviche which “cooks” the shrimp in an acidic marinade, but it should not be relied upon to fully cook raw shrimp to a safe temperature. To properly cook raw shrimp, it should be heated to an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).
