SEAFOOD MEDLEY CEVICHE

• Combine scallops, shrimp, tilapia, lemon juice, lime juice, orange juice, and serrano in a large bowl. Refrigerate for 1 hour, stirring every so often.
• Combine avocado, tomato, cucumber, red onion, cilantro, and garlic in a medium bowl.
• Whisk tomato and clam juice, vinegar, salt, lemon pepper, Worcestershire sauce, and white pepper together in a small bowl. Pour over avocado mixture and stir well.

CILANTRO SEAFOOD CEVICHE

Steps:

• Cut shrimp and squid into small bite size pieces.
• Place meat in a large bowl and pour in the lime juice (meat should be completely covered with the lime juice).
• Cover and let soak in the refrigerator for 1-2 hours or until the meat is tender and white (The whiteness of the meat will tell you that it has cooked in the acid).
• Add cilantro and tomatoes and mix well.
• Add salt and pepper to taste.
• Place in a sealed container and chill.
• Serve cold alone immediately or let soak for more flavor.
• The recipe keeps refrigerated in sealed container for 3-4 days.
• Note: If you are squeamish about eating seafood cooked in mere acid (like my mom is), you may use half-cooked, blanched seafood in this recipe instead of uncooked seafood (The result will not be as tender a meat, but I have tried both, and the results are comparable).

MEXICAN CEVICHE

Steps:
