Chopped Ceviche Food

SHRIMP CEVICHE

Steps:

• Place the shrimp in a large mixing bowl. Add 1/2 cup lime juice and let stand for 15 minutes so the shrimp can "cook" in the lime juice (any less and it won't cook, any more and it toughens).
• Meanwhile, in a separate large mixing bowl, mix the remaining 1/2 cup lime juice, cucumbers, tomatoes, cilantro, red onions and serrano chile to incorporate evenly. Transfer the mixed vegetables into the shrimp bowl and mix well to incorporate. Season the ceviche with some salt. Serve with saltine crackers, bottled hot sauce and lime wedges if desired.

BAY SCALLOP CEVICHE

Steps:

• Combine the scallops and lime juice in a large bowl, making sure the scallops are submerged (add more lime juice if necessary to cover). Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate 6 to 8 hours.
• Combine the olives, tomato, onion, jalapeno, orange juice, 2 teaspoons parsley, the sugar, hot sauce and 2 teaspoons salt in a separate large bowl. Refrigerate 30 minutes.
• Drain the scallops, reserving 1/4 cup of the lime juice. Add the scallops and reserved lime juice to the olive mixture. Toss and season with pepper. Cover and refrigerate, at least 1 hour or overnight.
• Sprinkle the ceviche with the remaining 1 teaspoon parsley. Serve with tortilla chips.

MEXICAN CEVICHE

Steps:

• Place shrimp in a bowl (You may either coarsely chop the shrimp, or leave them whole, depending on your preference.) Add lemon, covering shrimp completely. Cover, and refrigerate for 30 minutes, or until opaque and slightly firm.
• Add tomatoes, onions, cucumber, radishes, and garlic; toss to combine. Gradually add cilantro and jalapenos to desired taste (jalapeno will grow stronger while marinating). Stir in tomato and clam juices to desired consistency. Cover, and refrigerate for 1 hour. Serve chilled with tortilla chips.

CEVICHE

Steps:

• Spread the fish evenly in a large, non reactive pan. Mix all of the citrus juice and pour over the fish. Cover and refrigerate for 2 hours. The citrus juice will cook the fish throughout. Add the rest of the ingredients and season with salt and pepper. Serve with tortilla chips or your favorite cracker.

PERUVIAN FISH CEVICHE

Steps:

• Have grill pre-greased and preheated to medium-high.
• Place fish in a non-reactive bowl. Add 3 cups of chilled water to fish and rinse gently. Drain water.
• Add onions to remaining chilled water and let soak.
• Meanwhile, place aji, garlic, and pinch of salt in a mortar and pestle. Grind to make a paste.
• Combine fish, lime and lemon juices, aji and garlic paste, salt, pepper, and cilantro. Let marinate for 10 minutes.
• Brush corn and sweet potato slices with oil and place on grill. Cook about 10 minutes.
• When ready to serve, divide fish ceviche among 4 lettuce cups and top with onion slices. Serve with grilled corn and sweet potato slices and garnish with Japanese seaweed, if desired.

CEVICHE

Steps:

• In a large glass bowl, combine the fish, lime juice and onion. The juice should completely cover the fish; if not, add a little more. Cover with cling film and place in the fridge for 1 hr 30 mins.
• Remove the fish and onion from the lime juice (discard the juice) and place in a bowl. Add the olives, chilies, tomatoes, coriander and olive oil, stir gently, then season with a good pinch of salt and sugar. This can be made a couple of hours in advance and stored in the fridge. Serve with tortilla chips to scoop up the ceviche and enjoy with a glass of cold beer.
