SCALLOP CEVICHE

When fresh fish or seafood is available
this is a quick appetizer
that can be prepared in less than 30 minutes…
…as always, limited space
and a few fresh ingredients
is no probem when preparing this dish…
…just 20 minutes and the scallops are
‘cooked’ in freshly squeezed juice…
I served with some whole grain chiabatta
and a crisp
Chardonnay…
Scallop Ceviche
350 g (approximately 2 cups) fresh tiny scallops
