Tartar Sauce

Method

Preparation of Seafood

  1. 1

    Prepare the Shrimp

    In a large bowl, season the shrimp with salt and black pepper. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Scallops

    Rinse the scallops under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels. Season with salt and pepper.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Fish

    Cut the fish fillets into serving-sized pieces. Season with salt and black pepper.

Cooking Seafood

  1. 4

    Cook the Shrimp

    In a skillet over medium heat, add a tablespoon of olive oil. Once hot, add the shrimp and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until they turn pink and opaque. Remove the shrimp from the skillet and set aside.

  2. 5

    Cook the Scallops

    In the same skillet, add another tablespoon of olive oil if needed. Place the scallops in the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until they are golden brown and cooked through. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

  3. 6

    Cook the Fish

    Add the remaining olive oil to the skillet if necessary. Place the fish pieces in the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side until the fish is flaky and cooked through. Remove from the skillet.

Making Tartar Sauce

  1. 7

    Combine Ingredients

    In a medium bowl, combine the mayonnaise, chopped dill pickles, capers, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are combined.

  2. 8

    Chill Tartar Sauce

    Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate the tartar sauce for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld.

Serving

  1. 9

    Arrange the Platter

    On a large serving platter, arrange the cooked shrimp, scallops, and fish. Serve with the chilled tartar sauce on the side.
