SHRIMP AND CRAB CEVICHE WITH AVOCADO

Steps:

• Preheat the oven broiler. Place the halved tomatoes, bell pepper, jalapeno, and onion cut sides down on a rimmed baking sheet. Place under the broiler and cook for 5 minutes or until slightly charred. Remove the vegetables from the oven and place them in a food processor. Add the lime juice, orange juice, ketchup, horseradish, and Tabasco to the food processor. Process the mixture until combined and just a little bit chunky (it should not be a puree nor should it be a paste). Transfer the vegetable mixture to a large bowl and season with salt and pepper. Cover the bowl and chill for 1 hour or up to 24 hours. When chilled and ready to serve, add the shrimp, chopped tomato, cilantro, green onion, avocado, and crab. Mix gently. Garnish with a lime wedge or slice and serve.
