Scallop Ceviche ft. J&R Seafood Market & Full Heart Farm
SERVES: 4
PREP TIME: 15 MINUTES
TOTAL TIME: 1 HR 15 MIN
SCALLOP CEVICHE INGREDIENTS:
- 1 lb. scallops, rinsed, pat dry and cut into 1/2″ pieces (I got mine from J&R Seafood Market in Mystic, CT)
-
1/2 cup Lime juice
-
1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, finely diced (I sourced from Full Heart Farm in Ledyard, CT)
- 1 tsp sea salt (more or less to preference)
-
1/2 cup avocado, finely diced
-
2 tbs cilantro (optional)
- 1/2 cup shallots, finely diced
-
1/2 sliced serrano or fresno peppers
- (Optional) local microgreens
DIRECTIONS:
-
Toss all ingredients together in a large mixing bowl until combined.
-
Cover and chill in the fridge for 1 hour, stirring occasionally, to help the lime juice cure the scallops. (You will notice the scallops shift in opacity as it turns from a subtle pink to a cloudy white.)
-
When ready, transfer to small cups, garnish with thinly sliced radishes and micro greens and enjoy!
NOTES:
Although avocados are not as local to New England, you can sub the texture for sweet potatoes. The world is your oyster, mix and match and enjoy!
