Diver scallops, hand-harvested for exceptional quality, are perfect for ceviche.
For an authentic experience, source top-quality scallops like Jumbo Sea Scallops or Hokkaido Scallops.
Prepare Scallops:
Rinse and pat scallops dry. Dice into uniform pieces to ensure even marination.
Marinate:
Combine scallops with lime, lemon, and orange juice in a glass bowl. Cover and refrigerate for 30–60 minutes until scallops turn opaque.
Mix Vegetables:
In a separate bowl, combine red onion, jalapeño, avocado, cherry tomatoes, and cilantro.
Combine:
Drain excess citrus juice from scallops and gently mix with vegetables. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Serve:
Spoon ceviche into chilled glasses or serve with crispy tortilla chips.
“Freshness is key when preparing scallop ceviche. Always use dry-packed scallops to avoid any chemical preservatives. For an extra burst of flavor, zest the citrus before juicing.”
“Presentation is everything with ceviche. Serve in martini glasses for an elegant touch and garnish with microgreens or edible flowers.”
