Provided by Bergy

Categories     Canadian

Time 18m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

8 ounces shrimp, peeled,boil first them peel or use ready cooked
8 ounces bay scallops or 8 ounces sea scallops
4 avocados
1/4 cup red onion, diced
1/4 cup tomatoes, chopped
1/4 cup English cucumber, chopped
1 jalapeno pepper, chopped
2 tablespoons parsley, chopped
1/2 teaspoon lime zest
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice

Steps:

  • Cook the shrimp& scallops in boiling water for about 3 minutes (do not over cook or they will become tough, you should only cook them until the shrimp turn pink and the scallops are opaque. Drain& chill under cold water. Cube the scallops (Leave bay scallops whole). You may now, if you wish, cover the sea).
  • Cut Avocados in half and remove the pit.
  • Scoop out the flesh, leaving a thin shell, chop the flesh and place in a large bowl.
  • Add shrimp, scallops and remaining ingredients, toss lightly.
  • Divide among the 8 avocado shells, mound attractively.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh, high-quality seafood. Look for scallops and shrimp that are firm and have a briny smell. Avoid any seafood that looks slimy or has an off odor.
  • Don't overcook the seafood. Scallops and shrimp cook quickly, so be careful not to overcook them. Overcooked seafood will be tough and chewy.
  • Use a good quality olive oil. The olive oil you use will make a big difference in the flavor of the salad. Choose a flavorful, extra-virgin olive oil.
  • Add some acid to the vinaigrette. Acid helps to balance out the richness of the seafood and olive oil. You can use lemon juice, lime juice, or white wine vinegar.
  • Season the salad to taste. Add salt and pepper to taste, and adjust the other seasonings as desired.
