Mexican side dish made with crab/shrimp and lemon juice?!
Answers:
Could be Ceviche but it usually uses lime juice - freshly squeezed lime juice and sometime there are scallops in it too as well as some diced tomatoes, avocados, red onion and cilantro. Yummy
I am a chef
It is definitely Ceviche.

1. In a large glass or ceramic bowl, gently toss the shrimp and scallops with the lime juice and lemon juice. Mix in onion, cucumber, tomato, jalapeno, serrano, cilantro, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Cover bowl, and chill ceviche 1 hour in the refrigerator, until shrimp and scallops are opaque.
It sounds like a variation of ceviche which is basically any fish or seafood which has been chopped up and "cooked" with lime juice. In Mexico it is next to impossible to get lemon juice, we are all about the lime.
