Ceviche De Gringo
- 12 lb bay scallops (if sea 1/4 them) or 12 lb sea scallops (if sea 1/4 them)
- 12 lb shrimp, uncooked
- 1 lb firm white fish fillet, and i'm not saying this because i'm a gringo (snapper or grouper is best or if your poor tilapia, mahi, or shark.)
- aromatics & spices
- 12 bunch cilantro, if your not sure add less then add more if needed
- 1 red onion, washed with lime and 1 tsp. salt soak 10 min. then rinse juice
- 2 -3 serrano peppers or 2 -3 jalapenos or 1 habanero pepper, seeded
- 1 -2 tomatoes
- 1 -2 celery rib
- 1 -2 garlic clove
- 8 -10 limes, juice of (squeeze all the juice)
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- salt & pepper
- avocado, if you like them i think they are gross cut them the same size as the seafood (optional)
- 12 cup corn, off the cob (optional)
- 12 lb cooked octopus (optional)
- 12 lb squid, uncooked (optional)
- Seafood should be cut up the same size to ensure even cooking around 1/4 to 1/2 inch pieces.
- Fine dice or mince celery, onion, pepers, garlic, tomato and cilantro.
- Combine all ingredients in a casserole dish preferable a glass one.
- The lime juice should just about cover the mixture and place in the refrigerator for 1 1/2 to 2 hours.
- (Cooking time depends on how big you cut up the seafood, bigger pieces equals more time in the fridge.
- ).
- Serve with corn/tostada chips, crackers and once again Im not saying this because I am one or fried banana/plantain chips and an ice cold beer.
- And if you happen too have a few too many beers; take a shot of the juice from the ceviche in the morning.
