Sea-Fab Botana Ingredients

Method

Preparation Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Seafood

    Start by preparing the seafood. If using raw shrimp, peel and devein them. For the octopus, if it's not pre-cooked, boil it in salted water until tender, about 30-45 minutes, then chop it into bite-sized pieces. The tuna should be diced into small cubes.

  2. 2

    Chop the Fruits and Vegetables

    Dice the mango, cucumber, onion, and avocado into small pieces. Make sure to keep the pieces uniform for a better presentation and texture.

  3. 3

    Combine Ingredients

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the raw shrimp, cooked shrimp, octopus, tuna, mango, cucumber, onion, and avocado. Toss gently to mix the ingredients without mashing the avocado.

  4. 4

    Add the Sauce

    Drizzle the black sauce over the mixed seafood and vegetables. Start with 4 tablespoons, adding more if desired. Toss gently to coat all the ingredients evenly.

  5. 5

    Season with Chiltepin

    Sprinkle chiltepin over the mixture to taste. Adjust the quantity based on your preferred spice level.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Transfer the Sea-Fab Botana to a serving platter. Garnish with additional chiltepin if desired. Serve immediately as a refreshing appetizer or light meal.
