Ceviche In ceviche (sometimes spelled seviche), the acids in citrus juices actually "cook" the seafood when left in contact with seafood for a period of several hours or more. Makes 2 servings. |

Instructions: 1. Remove thin white strip of muscle or "hinge" from scallops, the small strip that becomes tough and rather indigestible when cooked. Marinate scallops in lime juice about 3 hours. 2. Remove to a bowl with slotted spoon and add 1 tablespoon of the lime juice and all the remaining ingredients except lettuce and tomato wedges. Taste and adjust seasonings. Divide between 2 small plates lined with lettuce leaves. Garnish with tomato wedges. |
