Gather @red chili{1}, @fresh cilantro{3%tbsp} and @corn on the cob{1}.

Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook the @shrimp{500%g} just until pink and curled, about 90 seconds; drain and plunge into ice water to stop the cooking. ~{90%seconds}

Soak the sliced @red onion{1} in ice water for 10 minutes to soften its bite, then drain well. ~{10%minutes}

Pat the shrimp dry and halve lengthwise if large; place in a chilled glass bowl with @salt{}, @garlic{1%clove} and half the chile.

Pour over the @lime{8} juice and toss gently; let sit 5 minutes so the flavors combine. ~{5%minutes}

Fold in the drained onion, cilantro and remaining chile.

Serve at once with the @sweet potato{200%g} and corn alongside, spooning the citrusy marinade over the top.
