Shrimp And Snapper Ceviche With Tomatillos Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler and line a baking sheet with foil. Soak the shallots in ice water for 5 minutes, then drain and set aside.
• Put the tomatillos cut-side down on the baking sheet. Broil until soft and charred in spots, rotating the baking sheet as needed, 4 to 5 minutes. Let cool.
• Transfer half of the tomatillos to a blender along with the 1/4 cup packed cilantro leaves and stems, lime juice and salt. Blend until smooth. Remove the skins from the remaining tomatillos and cut into small chunks.
• Toss the tomatillo sauce, chopped tomatillos, scallops and drained shallots in a medium bowl. Cover and refrigerate until the scallops are opaque and firm, tossing a few times, at least 30 minutes and up to overnight.
• Toss with the chopped cilantro before serving. Serve with corn tortillas, if using.

Steps:

• Combine snapper, lime juice, and orange juice in a small glass bowl, making sure that fish is fully submerged in the juices. Cover, and refrigerate 8 hours or overnight.
• Bring a medium pot of water to a boil, and add shrimp. Cover, turn off heat, and let shrimp cook 2 minutes. Transfer to a bowl of ice water, and let sit 5 minutes to cool. Peel, devein, and cut shrimp in half lengthwise.
• Drain fish well. Transfer to a large glass bowl, and add shrimp. Add salt, sugar, and oil. Fold in orange and grapefruit segments, jalapeno, tomatillos, and cilantro. Season with a pinch more salt or sugar if necessary.

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat for 1 minute. Add the chopped chilies and 1/2 of the garlic and cook until the peppers start to soften, about 5 minutes. Add the tomatillos and 1 1/2 teaspoons of salt, reduce the heat to medium-low and cook until the tomatillos begin to break down and release some liquid, about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Transfer the tomatillo sauce to your blender, puree, and set aside.
• Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp, season them with some salt and pepper and the remaining chopped garlic. Cook until the garlic becomes fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes, stirring often. Add the tomatillo sauce and simmer until the shrimp are curled and opaque, 1 to 2 minutes. Serve sprinkled with the cilantro.
