1/2 pound medium size shrimp, shelled and cleaned
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
Dressing:
1 1/2 tablespoon Balsamic vinegar
2 tablespoons finely chopped red onion
2 tablespoons chopped chives
1 teaspoon minced Jalapeno chile pepper

Combine shrimp with lime juice. Refrigerate for 1 hour. Dressing: combine all ingredients except oil. Gradually add oil, whisking in until blended.
