Best Citrus Ceviche With Shrimp And Scallops Recipes

CITRUS CEVICHE WITH SHRIMP AND SCALLOPS

Citrus Ceviche With Shrimp and Scallops image

This is a twist on a Emeril Lagasse recipe from 2005. Recipe is healthy, flavorful, and easy to prepare. My family doesn't like "hot" stuff, so this recipe is mild. That being said, feel free to add serrano chiles or jalapeno peppers to your taste. I made about 4 different ceviches the other day for taste testing (yes, my husband is spoiled) and this was our favorite. NOTE: I have made this several times since the original posting and wanted to post a quick update. Feel free to sub sweet bell pepper (diced) for the cucumber. Also add salt and lemon pepper to taste at the end AFTER it is "cooked". I usually let mine "cook" for 6 hours, not the 3 recommended.

Ingredients

1/2 lb medium shrimp, peeled and deveined and cut into 1/2 inch pieces
1/2 lb bay scallop (the little ones)
2 lemons, juice of
2 limes, juice of
2 oranges, juice of
1 cup cucumber, peeled and diced into 1/4-inch pieces
1/4 cup red onion, finely chopped
1 cup diced tomato
1 avocado, peeled, seeded, and chopped into 1/2-inch pieces
1 tablespoon roughly chopped cilantro leaf (may add more if you like)
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1/2 teaspoon salt (optional)
1/2 teaspoon lemon pepper (optional)

Steps:

In a medium-sized stainless steel or clear glass bowl, place lemon, lime and orange juices.
Stir in the shrimp, scallops, cucumber and red onion. If you are adding chiles or peppers, add them now as well.
Refrigerate for 3 hours. The shrimp and scallops should have turned white (from opaque) meaning that the citrus juices have "cooked" them.
30 minutes prior to serving, remove from the fridge and stir in the tomato, avocado, chopped cilantro, and olive oil.
Serve in martini glasses with saltine crackers on the side if you want to be fancy, otherwise just put the bowl out with a few spoons and a whole bunch of saltine crackers and tortilla chips and let everyone dig in!
To serve, divide the ceviche between 6 chilled martini glasses.

Provided by Guy Fieri

Time 50m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

Ingredients

12 ounces large shrimp, shelled, deveined, halved and diced
Kosher salt
12 ounces boneless, skinless mahi mahi fillets (or other firm white fish)
6 ribs celery
1/4 cup lime juice
Juice of 1 orange
2 teaspoons ground cumin
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
Freshly cracked black pepper
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh cilantro
4 cups canola oil, for frying
Three 6-inch corn tortillas, sliced into strips
Kosher salt
1 lime, cut into wedges

Steps:

For the ceviche: Place the shrimp into a pot of salted water. Place over medium heat and cook until just starting to turn opaque, 2 to 3 minutes. Drain before adding to the rest of the ceviche.
Meanwhile, dice the mahi mahi into 1/4-inch pieces and set aside in a large nonreactive bowl.
Peel the celery and place in a food processor with the lime juice and orange juice. Puree until smooth and set aside. Add the celery puree to the fish and sprinkle with the cumin, cayenne and some salt and black pepper. Add the shrimp and stir well to incorporate. Cover and chill the ceviche in the fridge for 15 to 20 minutes. The shrimp will turn pink and the fish will turn white when cooked. Toss with the cilantro just before serving.
For the tortilla strips: In a large cast-iron pot over medium-high heat (or in countertop fryer), bring the oil to 325 degrees F. Add the tortilla strips and fry until golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove to towel-lined dish and drain. Season with salt.
To plate: Spoon the ceviche into a serving bowl and garnish with the tortilla strips and lime wedges.
