Steps:
- At least one hour before serving, place the scallops, lime juice, cilantro, jalapeno, red onion, and salt and pepper as desired in a medium bowl. Stir to combine ingredients. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour or up to 12 hours.
- On a large serving platter, place large lettuce leaves overlapping each other in a circle so the frilly edges extend just beyond the rim of the platter. Using a slotted spoon to leave juices behind, mound ceviche in the center.
- Place corn, chili powder, and 1 1/2 tablespoons of olive oil in bowl; mix together and season to taste with salt. Arrange corn in a ring around ceviche so that the corn covers the bottom third of the lettuce leaves. Place tomatoes in an overlapping ring surrounding the corn and covering the middle third of lettuce leaves.
- Distribute pressed garlic over the tomatoes, drizzle remaining oil on them, and season to taste with salt. Place the avocado slices and lime wedges on the top third of the lettuce leaves, around the tomatoes. Serve immediately.

- Trim the cucumber slices with a round, fluted cutter to remove the rind. Scoop a pocket out of the middle of the cucumber slices. Do not cut all the way through the slice. Fill the cucumber cups with the seviche. Garnish each seviche cup with a small dot of sour cream and a cilantro leaf.

STIR-FRIED SCALLOPS WITH LETTUCE
From Wei-Chuan's Cookbook, Chinese Cuisine. This is an authentic chinese recipe. The dried scallops or dried shrimp lends a complex aroma to the clean crisp lettuce. Dried scallops are expensive, but they lend a sweet seafood taste and is much preferred, the dried shrimp is tasty too, but the flavor is more robust. Although I made this as is with the dried scallops --it was excellent, and I loved the texture of the lettuce, I find iceberg void of the nutrients of true green leafy vegetables favored by the Chinese. Therefore, this dish can be made with romaine lettuce, baby bok choy or pea shoot leaves (which are abundant in late winter and early spring in chinatowns in major cities.) We actually ordered this dish with scallop/pea shoot leaves recently over Chinese New Year in a restaurant and it would've been tastier with this sauce!
