Step 1
Cook shrimp in a medium pot of boiling salted water until pink on the outside but just barely cooked on the inside, about 45 seconds. Transfer to an ice bath; drain and pat dry. Cut shrimp into ½” pieces and transfer to a large bowl. Add red snapper, jalapeño, orange juice, and ½ cup lime juice; toss to combine. Chill, tossing occasionally, at least 20 minutes or up to an hour.
Step 2
Add watermelon, onion, and avocado and toss to coat. Season with salt; toss in cilantro.
Step 3
Spoon ceviche into a large shallow bowl or divide among bowls. Drizzle with chili oil and more lime juice. Serve with chips alongside.
