Ingredients:
4 cup lightly salted water
1 lb sea scallops
2 tbsp lime juice
1 tbsp white wine vinegar
1 pepper jalapeno, finely chopped
1 clove garlic, pushed through a press
1/2 avocado (preferably haas), 1/2-inch cubes
1/4 cup olive oil
2 tbsp fresh cilantro, chopped
Instructions:
Unlike traditional ceviches (Spanish seafood cocktails) in which the
seafood 'cooks' in the acidity of citrus juice, our version is made with
lightly poached scallops.
1. Bring water to a boil. Add scallops; immediately remove pot from heat.
After 8 minutes, remove scallops with a slotted spoon.
2. In a large bowl, mix lime juice, vinegar, pepper, and garlic. Add
scallops, mix well. Refrigerate 1 hour for flavors to blend.
3. Before serving, gently toss scallop mixture with avocado cubes, olive
oil, and cilantro.
