Scallop Mango Ceviche w/Mexican Coleslaw

 The Perfect Cool Summer Meal!



Tip:  We buy the small scallops for this meal.  If you have large ones on hand, just cut them into quarters.  The lime juice is what 'cooks' the scallops.  Recommended time 'cooking' I think is 4 hours.

Guacamole is a great side with this!  Highly recommend.

Ceviche

Ingredients: 

1      lbs scallops
1      Avacado
1      Mango (I used the jarred version, the fresh has been too ropey at times)
1/2  JalapeƱo (seeded and ribs removed)
1/4  Red Onion diced
2     Tbs Cilantro chopped
1     Cup Lime juice
1/2  Tsp Sea Salt or a Seasoned Salt
Dash of Red Pepper Flakes is you like it a little hotter.

Instructions:

In a large bowl or l gallon zip lock bag, combine all ingredients, mix well and refrigerate.   Stir or mix every hour for 4 hours.  You could use this in as little as an hour, but I find that 4 hours works best. 

Serve cold on tortilla or corn chips.

Mexican Coleslaw
