This is a Rachael Ray 30 Minute Meals recipe that has been a staple of mine for a year or so. Includes a recipe for piquillo gazpacho to serve on the side.

Citrus Ceviche With Shrimp and Scallops

Tue, 27 May 2008 23:19:17 -0400

This is a twist on a Emeril Lagasse recipe from 2005. Recipe is healthy, flavorful, and easy to prepare. My family doesn't like "hot" stuff, so this recipe is mild. That being said, feel free to add serrano chiles or jalapeno peppers to your taste. I made about 4 different ceviches the other day for taste testing (yes, my husband is spoiled) and this was our favorite. NOTE: I have made this several times since the original posting and wanted to post a quick update. Feel free to sub sweet bell pepper (diced) for the cucumber. Also add salt and lemon pepper to taste at the end AFTER it is "cooked". I usually let mine "cook" for 6 hours, not the 3 recommended. -- posted by JanuaryBride

Salpicon De Camarones Estilo Veracruz

Tue, 08 Jul 2008 20:42:03 -0400

Shrimp Cocktail Veracruz-Style is awesome! The word salpicon comes from the Spanish sal, salt, & picar to chop, refers in classical French cooking - to a mince of poultry, game or vegetables bound with a sauce. In Mexico, however, it can mean anything from a shredded beef salad in the north to this citrusy shrimp appetizer served with Salsa Verde - at Restaurante Dona Lala in Tiacotalpan. It is fantastic! Am posting the recipe for the Salsa Verde just in case this is slightly different from others. The tart green tomatillo gives the salsa its hue & name, is the most popular salsa ingredien in Mexico. -- posted by Manami

Camarones Al Tequila

I had this wonderful dish at a Mexican restaurant in Olympia, WA. It is so flavorful and delicious. I searched for a recipe and found several but none that use sundried tomatoes like we had it at the restaurant. It is only 4 WW points before the tortillas or rice. I like to just eat it with a fork and use a tortilla to just sop of the juices. (A 6-inch fliour tortilla is 2 points). -- posted by Alskann

Ensalada De Nopales Y Camarones - Cactus and Shrimp Salad

Fri, 31 Oct 2008 18:44:49 -0400

Cactus is a common and tasty food item in Mexico and parts of SW USA. Cactus, or NOPALES as they are known in Texas and Mexico, can be found fresh and needle free in the produce section. You can even find jars of Nopales or Nopalitos (little (pieces of) Nopales) in the ethnic aisle of your grocery store. If you choose to use those please drain them and rinse them well. Green Beans or chayote can be substituted if cactus is not available. The nutritional info here is not correct as the olive oil is used for coating the items you are grilling and in the dressing. Not all of it is consumed. This recipe is from La Comida Del Barrio (meaning Foods from the neighborhood) Latin American Cooking in the U.S., by Aaron Sanchez (Clarkson Potter, 2003) This dish would be wonderful with any Mexican cerveza (beer) or with a crisp and fruity Sauvignon Blanc. -- posted by mama's kitchen

Note on handling the peppers: wear gloves if you have them, if not wash your hands well after cleaning! -- posted by Mamablowfish

Mexican Prawn Salad

Tue, 14 Apr 2009 12:07:44 -0400

From *Taste of Mexico* by Elisabeth L. Oritz & per her intro, "Salads in Mexico are usually served w/the main course instead of green vegetables. Salads containing meat or seafood, however, are very satisfying & usually served as a separate course." I adapted this essentially make-ahead & assemble in minutes salad to suit our preferences w/options to add Old Bay Seasoning to the dressing & garnish w/avocado or lime wedges as desired. All ingredients are pre-cooked, but it seemed realistic to show that + ingredient prep time, so 20 min was allowed for prep & 5 min for assembly. *Enjoy* ! -- posted by twissis

This is a stew that my husband learned from his mom who lives in Veracruz Mexico. It is delicious with crusty bread for fresh tortillas. -- posted by Tiny_Toodles

Mexican Seafood Cocktail (Campechana)

Tue, 01 Sep 2009 12:07:43 -0400

This is a favorite at Goode Company Seafood in Houston. It goes perfectly with fried tortilla chips and an ice cold Corona! Here, at the Home, they installed a new computer program and corporate was explaining it - well, we had made it for us in the kitchen, as a trial run and had some left over! It flew out the window - fortunately we had some left over - delicously seafood flavor with lots of spice.;) -- posted by Manami

Aguachiles

Thu, 17 Sep 2009 16:53:30 -0400

Aquachile is essentially a very spicy version of ceviche typically made with shrimp (camarones in Spanish). Aguachile is best served cold. As such, keep your shellfish chilled at all times as it will not have enough time to cool properly while marinating. If it's a particularly hot day, rest your shellfish on a plate of ice as you work to ensure that it remains cold. -- posted by Gene Padilla

Prosciutto Shrimp

This is another great recipe from 'Salsa Cooking'. It is a wonderful nibble or appetizer or first course; if using as a first course you should calculate 3 pieces per person. It is served with Recipe #390915 -- posted by Deantini

Grilled Shrimp With Kahlua-Chipotle Chile Glaze

Mon, 05 Oct 2009 16:42:33 -0400

Recipe by Bon Appetit Chef de Cuisine - Jonathan Lindenauer. We have yet to try these out but they are on my list!!! Bon Appetit magazine, "Fiesta of the Senses" November 2009 edition. Am posting it here for safekeeping. :) Chef Jonathan says "the spices used in the glaze for the shrimp are a signature of Mexican cuisine. The heat they bring and the sweetness of the dish are offset by this bubbly Kahlua cocktail - 2 oz Kahlua Coffe Liqueur in a highball glass and club soda as needed.- a wonderful drink for a holiday toast!" ;) -- posted by Manami

Sopa De Camaron (Shrimp Soup)

Sun, 18 Oct 2009 10:15:54 -0400

This delicious recipe uses all of the shrimp. Be sure to buy un-peeled shrimp. You start by making a sofrito and end with a broth that is incredible in its depth of flavor. Let your food processor do the mincing. Where you see shrimp soup listed in the ingredients know that I use cubes of Knorr Sopa de Camaron that are about a Tbsp. For some reason the Recipe Tsar won't let me use the term. Feel free to add more of the Sriracha if you like. I do. ¡¡¡¡¡Buen Provecho!!!!! -- posted by davinandkennard

Prawn & Scallop Ceviche

Sat, 02 Jan 2010 10:40:19 -0500

Our New Year's Eve tradition is to have a Mexican extravaganza for an early dinner. Wanting something on the lighter side that goes well with Champagne we sought out an amazing Ceviche recipe. I took two recipes from Emeril on the Food Network's website and came up with this recipe. My husband and I lived in San Diego for 10 years and spent some time in Mexico eating authentic Mexican food, and I have to say this is the best Ceviche I have ever had. -- posted by Nicole McBride

Avocado Stuffed With Shrimp

Tue, 05 Jan 2010 11:24:11 -0500

Good friends introduced us to Avocado Surprise in Puerto Penasco so this is my take on it. I used Recipe#17293 to cook the shrimp. Could be an appetizer or summer luncheon dish. Preparation includes 1 hour to chill. You could also make the shrimp salad aspect earlier in day as I have done. -- posted by WiGal
