Categories     appetizer

Time 55m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 lemon, halved
1 head garlic, halved
3 bay leaves
8 peppercorns
Sea salt
1 1/2 pounds large shrimp, peeled
2 cups coconut milk
1/2 cup lime juice (about 6 to 8 limes), plus more for drizzling
1 red onion, sliced thin
2 serrano chiles, sliced thin
1/2 bunch freshly chopped cilantro leaves, plus more for garnish
4 coconuts
2 cups rock or kosher salt, for serving
Extra-virgin olive oil, for drizzling

Steps:

  • Make the ceviche: Put a large pot of water over high heat and add the lemon, garlic, bay leaves, peppercorns and salt, to taste. When it comes to a boil add the shrimp and turn off the heat. Let the shrimp poach just until they are cooked through, about 3 to 5 minutes. Remove the shrimp to a sheet pan and refrigerate. When they are cool slice them in half lengthwise. Combine the coconut milk, lime juice, onion, chiles, and cilantro in a large bowl and season it with salt. Add the cooled shrimp and let them marinate, refrigerated, for about 1/2 hour.
  • Prepare the coconut shells: Take a hammer and hit the coconut repeatedly (not too hard) around its equator, turning the coconut in your hand. It will eventually split into 2 halves. Drain the liquid from the coconuts.
  • To serve: Pour the salt onto a large platter and nestle the coconut halves into the salt so they stand upright. Divide the ceviche among the coconut halves; garnish with drizzles of lime juice, olive oil and cilantro.

SHRIMP AND SCALLOP COCONUT CEVICHE



Shrimp and Scallop Coconut Ceviche image

Provided by Cat Cora

Categories     appetizer

Time 4h30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1/4 pound scallops
1/4 pound small to medium sized shrimp, peeled and deveined
1/3 to 1/2 cup lime juice, plus 2 tablespoons (about 7 to 10 limes for 1/2 cup)
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice (about 2 medium lemons)
1/2 cup coconut milk
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 jalapeno, halved and seeded
1 tablespoon chopped cilantro
1 clove garlic, peeled
1 mango, peeled, pitted and diced
1/2 small red onion, thinly sliced
1/2 teaspoon salt (or lime salt)
1 tablespoon unsweetened coconut for garnish
1 coconut shell halved, optional

Steps:

  • Cook's Note: If the scallops are particularly thick, you may want to slice each scallop horizontally into 2 thinner disks.
  • Cut each scallop into 8 wedges. Cut the peeled shrimp into chunks that approximately match the size of the scallop wedges (unless you have rock shrimp, which doesn't need to be cut). In a medium bowl, pour enough lime juice over the scallop and shrimp pieces to cover. Toss gently so each piece is given a good lime juice bath. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and place the bowl in the refrigerator to marinate for 4 to 10 hours. The shellfish is done when it's completely white and opaque and doesn't look or taste raw.
  • In a separate bowl, mix the remaining lime juice with the lemon juice, coconut milk, and olive oil. You can chop the jalapeno, cilantro, and garlic by hand, but if you have a food processor it's much easier to pulse the 3 together. Add the pepper mixture to the coconut mixture, and stir in the red onion. (You may add the mango chunks here if you like, but I prefer to add them right before serving.) Season the mixture with the salt and mix well. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for several hours or overnight.
  • When every chunk of shrimp and scallop is white with no hint of translucence, remove them from the juice. Discard the lime juice. Combine the seafood and the coconut milk mixture, tossing well. Add the mango chunks and gently toss together. Taste the seafood and add more salt or fresh lime juice, if desired.
  • For a knockout presentation, spoon the seafood ceviche into the coconut shell halves and top with a sprinkle of unsweetened coconut, if desired. Pile warm tortilla chips around the coconut shells, if desired.

SHRIMP CEVICHE WITH COCONUT MILK



Shrimp Ceviche with Coconut Milk image

This is a simple take on ceviche. Instead of letting the shrimp 'cook' in citric acid, you boil them, then let them marinate in a rich and creamy coconut milk sauce. This is simple and refreshing for a nice summer day.

Time 1h20m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 lemon, halved and seeded
1 head garlic, halved
3 Turkish bay leaves
8 whole black peppercorns
1 tablespoon kosher salt, or to taste
1 ½ pounds peeled and deveined large shrimp (21 to 25 per lb)
2 cups coconut milk
½ cup lime juice
2 serrano chile peppers, thinly sliced
½ bunch cilantro, chopped
1 red onion, thinly sliced
8 sprigs cilantro, for garnish
1 lime, cut into 8 wedges

Steps:

  • Squeeze the lemon halves into a large pot, and toss in the halves. Add the garlic, bay leaves, peppercorns, and salt, then fill with water to half full. Bring to a boil over high heat, then stir in the shrimp, and turn off the heat. Allow the shrimp to poach until they are no longer translucent in the center, 3 to 5 minutes. Drain in a colander in the sink, then place the shrimp on a baking sheet, and refrigerate until cold, about 30 minutes.
  • Stir the coconut milk, lime juice, serrano peppers, chopped cilantro, and onion together in a non-metallic bowl; season with salt to taste. Cut the chilled shrimp in half lengthwise and stir into the coconut marinade. Cover and refrigerate 30 minutes before serving. Garnish individual servings with the cilantro sprigs and lime wedges.

Tips for Making the Best Shrimp Ceviche with Coconut Milk:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your ceviche. Look for shrimp that are firm and pink, and coconut milk that is rich and creamy.
  • Don't overcook the shrimp. Shrimp only need to be cooked for a few minutes, otherwise they will become tough and rubbery. You can either poach the shrimp in hot water or marinate them in lime juice for 30 minutes before adding them to the ceviche.
  • Use a variety of vegetables. This will add color, texture, and flavor to your ceviche. Some good options include red onion, cucumber, tomato, avocado, and mango.
  • Don't skimp on the lime juice. Lime juice is essential for ceviche, as it helps to "cook" the shrimp and gives the dish its characteristic tangy flavor. Use fresh lime juice, not bottled lime juice.
  • Season to taste. Ceviche should be well-seasoned, but not too salty or spicy. Start with a small amount of salt and pepper, and then add more to taste.

Conclusion:

Shrimp ceviche with coconut milk is a delicious, refreshing, and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a summer party or potluck. It is also a healthy choice, as it is packed with protein, vitamins, and minerals. So next time you are looking for a light and flavorful meal, give this shrimp ceviche with coconut milk a try. You won't be disappointed!
