SHRIMP CEVICHE WITH AVOCADO

My son-in-law makes this wonderful ceviche for us every Christmas and New Years, and for the 4th of July too! Everyone loves it! Serve the ceviche well-chilled in small plastic cups or chilled cocktail glasses (I suggest placing the bowl of ceviche within a larger bowl full of ice to keep it icy cold), along with tostadas chips or tortilla scoops and some chili sauce on the side. Very delicious and refreshing! Note: amounts are approximate-- feel free to adjust measurements to suit your own tastes. Cook time is chill time.

I've served it in anything from plastic cups to Martini glasses or even in brandy glasses for a more special presentation. Cook time does not include marinating the shrimp.

2 lbs medium shrimp, peeled and deveined (i use frozen and thawed)

2 oranges, juice of, preferably sour oranges
2 (14 1/2 ounce) cans petite cut canned tomatoes (leave in juice)

3/4 lb. Uncooked Deveined Shrimp, tails pulled, cut in half the short way
3/4 lb. Uncooked Scallops, cut into quarters
1/2 c. Fresh Squeezed Lime Juice
1/4 tsp. Sea Salt
Fresh Ground Pepper
3/4 lb. Tomatoes, seeded* and diced (varicolored heirlooms work beautifully)
1/4 lb. Sweet Onion (Vidalia, Walla Walla ), diced small
1 Jalapeño Peppers, seeded and minced OR
2 small Serrano Peppers, minced (these will be spicier than the jalapeño)

Avocado Crema
1 large or 2 small avocadoes
1/4 c. Lemon or Lime Juice
1/4 tsp. Sea Salt

Steps:

  • Place first five ingredients in a glass or ceramic bowl (metal will react with the acidity of the lime). Refrigerate at least 16 hours, turning shrimp and scallops once or twice during that time to evenly distribute marinade. Before serving, prepare the remaining ingredients in a separate bowl. Mix thoroughly with marinated seafood and serve with a squeeze of avocado crema (see recipe below). *To seed a tomato, cut it in half crosswise, then gently squeeze each half, twisting your hand in a clockwise/ counterclockwise motion. Remove avocadoes from their skins, discarding pits. Place avocadoes into a blender. Add the lemon/lime juice and sea salt. Whir mixture until puréed, stopping the blender if necessary to rearrange contents for a complete purée. Place ceviche in individual chilled wine goblets or glass bowls. Squeeze a dollop of crema over each serving using a pastry bag, or fill a plastic bag with avocado crema, snip a corner tip of the bag, and use as you would a pastry bag.

AVOCADO SHRIMP CEVICHE-ESTILLO SARITA



Avocado Shrimp Ceviche-Estillo Sarita image

A tried and true ceviche recipe to be enjoyed for a Sunday brunch in our cafe. It is believed by most Latinos that the best time to eat ceviche is on a sunny day. Rainy days cause stomach cramps and nightmares. Of course most Latinos (especially my wife) can make a good ceviche blindfolded on any day rain or shine, in my opinion. Excellent for an appetizer in smaller portions or as a meal itself. Personally I enjoy this with an ice cold beer on the side.
