Seafood Avocado Cocktail

This could very well be the ultimate seafood cocktail, served with a light-bodied sauce instead of the typical red glop. With lots of vegetables to balance the chunks of shrimp and crab, it can be served as a salad as well as a palate- and eye-pleasing appetizer.

Method

Preparing the Fish

1

Marinate the Fish

In a bowl, mix the olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Add the fish fillets to the bowl, ensuring they are well-coated with the marinade. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

2

Cook the Fish

Heat a grill or a skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, place the marinated fish fillets on the grill. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side until the fish flakes easily with a fork.

Making the Salsa

3

Prepare the Ingredients

Dice the tomato, red onion, and jalapeño pepper. Place them in a bowl.

4

Mix the Salsa

Add lime juice and salt to the diced ingredients. Stir well to combine and let it sit for at least 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
