Categories     Shellfish     Marinate     Dinner

Yield 8 servings 4 people

Number Of Ingredients 13

5 limes (juiced)
2 lemons (juiced)
1/4 tsp. of lime zest
1/2 tsp. finely dice jalapeno
1 bag of frozen langostino lobster tails (found at trader joe's) defrosted rinsed and dried
2 lbs. of large shrimp cleaned and deveined, cut the same size as the langostino lobster pieces
1/2 red onion diced fine
chopped fresh cilantro (to taste, use however much or little you like)
1/4 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. garlic powder
2 avocados peeled and chopped
8 white corn tortillas
2 cups olive oil to fry shells (my preference, it tastes cleaner than vegetable oil, you can use 1/2 and 1/2 of each since olive oil heats up hotter than vegetable)

Steps:

  • combine garlic, salt, jalapeno, lime zest, cilantro, lobster, shrimp, red onion, juice of limes and lemon, let marinate for 8-12 hours the longer the better. The citrus will cook the shrimp, juice should cover over the seafood,if not add more. Fry tortillas until crisp and put on a paper towel lined plate to drain while still warm sprinkle with additional salt. To plate, spoon chopped avocado onto hot shell and then top with ceviche topping, serve with a lemon wedge on the side and voila!
