Ceviche Marinated Scallops Recipes

BAY SCALLOP CEVICHE

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, combine the scallops, 1/2 cup of the lime juice, and 1 teaspoon salt and set aside at room temperature for exactly 1 hour, stirring occasionally.
• In a separate bowl, combine the cucumbers, shallots, scallions, avocado, bell pepper, parsley, jalapeno pepper, and garlic. In a glass measuring cup, whisk together the remaining 1/4 cup lime juice, 1/4 cup olive oil, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon pepper, and the Sriracha. Pour over the vegetables and combine.
• When ready to serve, lift the scallops out of the lime juice with a slotted spoon (discard the liquid) and add them to the vegetable mixture. Stir well and spoon into the lettuce leaves for serving.

CEVICHE-STYLE SCALLOPS

Steps:

• Slice the scallops into thin rounds and arrange them in an even layer on a plate. Scatter some onion and chiles on top. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Squeeze a generous amount of lime juice on top. Serve right away, or wait for up to 30 minutes. (The scallops will gently "cook" in the lime juice.) Garnish with cilantro leaves.

SCALLOP CEVICHE

Steps:

• Mix all ingredients in sterile plastic container. Refrigerate 6 to 8 hours only. If forgotten and left in marinade, scallops will overcook.
• Drain very well, remove all garlic and return to container.
• Will keep refrigerated up to 3 days.

SCALLOP CEVICHE WITH CANDIED CITRUS

Steps:

• Spread the scallops in a single layer in a glass baking dish. Remove long strips of peel from 1 orange and 3 limes with a paring knife, being careful not to remove the white pith; set the peels aside. Juice the peeled fruit and the remaining oranges and limes to make 1 cup of each juice; pour into a bowl. Add the celery, onion, tomatoes, scallions, olive oil, 1/2 cup ice water, and pepper to taste; pour over the scallops. Cover and refrigerate until the scallops are opaque, 1 to 4 hours.
• Meanwhile, make the candied citrus: Place the orange and lime peels in a saucepan of water; bring to a boil and cook for 1 minute, then drain. Boil in fresh water 2 more times; drain and set aside. Combine the sugar and 1 cup water in the saucepan; bring to a boil, stirring to dissolve the sugar. Reduce the heat and return the citrus peels to the pan; simmer for 45 minutes. Transfer the peels with a slotted spoon to a rack, reserving the syrup; let the peels cool, then slice into 1/4-inch pieces.
• Drain the excess marinade from the ceviche. Add the cilantro and candied citrus peels, season with salt and toss. Transfer to a serving bowl and lightly drizzle with some of the reserved orange-lime syrup. Serve on endive leaves or with toasted bread, if desired.

CITRUS CEVICHE WITH SHRIMP AND SCALLOPS

Steps:

• In a medium-sized stainless steel or clear glass bowl, place lemon, lime and orange juices.
• Stir in the shrimp, scallops, cucumber and red onion. If you are adding chiles or peppers, add them now as well.
• Refrigerate for 3 hours. The shrimp and scallops should have turned white (from opaque) meaning that the citrus juices have "cooked" them.
• 30 minutes prior to serving, remove from the fridge and stir in the tomato, avocado, chopped cilantro, and olive oil.
• Serve in martini glasses with saltine crackers on the side if you want to be fancy, otherwise just put the bowl out with a few spoons and a whole bunch of saltine crackers and tortilla chips and let everyone dig in!
• To serve, divide the ceviche between 6 chilled martini glasses.

GRILLED SCALLOP "CEVICHE"

Steps:

• Toss scallops with 1 tablespoon oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a bowl, then thread 4 scallops onto each skewer.
• Prepare grill for direct-heat cooking over high heat.
• Oil grill rack, then grill scallops, covered only if using a gas grill, turning over once, until just cooked through, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a plate and cool slightly.
• While scallops cool, cut peel, including white pith, from orange with a sharp paring knife, then cut segments free from membranes. Coarsely chop enough segments to measure 1/4 cup and transfer to a large bowl (reserve remaining orange for another use). Stir in lime juice, cucumber, shallot, jalapeño (to taste), and remaining 2 tablespoons oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper.
• When scallops are cool enough to handle, halve each crosswise (quarter if large), then add to cucumber mixture, tossing to combine. Marinate, covered and chilled, until cold, at least 1 hour. Just before serving, stir in cilantro.

• About an hour before serving, drain liquid off tomatoes and add to onion mixture. Fold in chives and cilantro. Add scallops, and toss. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Allow to marinate about 30 minutes, then serve.
