Number Of Ingredients 16

1 head green-leaf lettuce, leaves separated, washed and dried, small inner leaves reserved for future use
4 ears cooked fresh corn, kernels cut from cob
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Sea salt
2 pounds ripe heirloom tomatoes, thinly sliced
3 medium garlic cloves, minced or pressed
1 ripe avocado, sliced
1 lime, cut in wedges
1 1/2 pounds bay scallops, tendons removed
1/4 cup freshly squeezed lime juice
2 tablespoons minced fresh cilantro leaves
1 large jalapeno pepper, seeded and diced
1/2 small red onion, minced
Sea salt
Ground black pepper

Steps:

  • At least one hour before serving, place the scallops, lime juice, cilantro, jalapeno, red onion, and salt and pepper as desired in a medium bowl. Stir to combine ingredients. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour or up to 12 hours.
  • On a large serving platter, place large lettuce leaves overlapping each other in a circle so the frilly edges extend just beyond the rim of the platter. Using a slotted spoon to leave juices behind, mound ceviche in the center.
  • Place corn, chili powder, and 1 1/2 tablespoons of olive oil in bowl; mix together and season to taste with salt. Arrange corn in a ring around ceviche so that the corn covers the bottom third of the lettuce leaves. Place tomatoes in an overlapping ring surrounding the corn and covering the middle third of lettuce leaves.
  • Distribute pressed garlic over the tomatoes, drizzle remaining oil on them, and season to taste with salt. Place the avocado slices and lime wedges on the top third of the lettuce leaves, around the tomatoes. Serve immediately.

I made this ceviche with shrimp instead of scallops, and it was just as delicious. I also used a low-fat yogurt instead of sour cream. It was a healthier version of ceviche, but it was still just as flavorful.

I love spicy food, so I added a few extra jalapenos to this ceviche. It was the perfect amount of heat for me. The lime juice and cilantro helped to balance out the spice, and the scallops were cooked perfectly.

I've made this ceviche several times, and it's always a hit. The only thing I would change is to add a little bit more cilantro. I love the fresh, citrusy flavor that it adds to the dish.

This ceviche is a great way to save money on seafood. Scallops can be expensive, but they're worth the splurge in this dish. The other ingredients are all very affordable, and the end result is a delicious and satisfying meal.

I was a little hesitant to try this recipe because I'm not a huge fan of seafood. But I'm so glad I did! The scallops are cooked perfectly, and the flavors are amazing. I especially love the creamy avocado and the crispy tortilla strips.
