Scallop Pineapple Ceviche • Light and Flavorful! | Club Foody

Who doesn’t like eating outside on a patio… certainly not me! That is one thing about summer that I really adore. The fresh air with a warm calm breeze, watching the sunset go down and just enjoying the weather while eating… priceless! To me, having a meal outside is a form of relaxation that I really appreciate.
 
When it’s nice outside and people are eating on a patio, grilling foods on the barbecue is quite obvious. There’s no need to start the oven inside and heat up the house. Burgers, hot dogs, steaks, chicken, kebabs, and so on are the popular ones we’ll all be enjoying this season but sometimes it’s nice to have a change. Something light, fresh and very tasty… something like a ceviche…
 
In the past, I shared my delicious Ceviche de Pescado (Fish Ceviche) with you and this time, here’s another one of my creations… my Scallop Pineapple Ceviche! Oh my! This dish is so flavorful. When I made this recipe the first time, I wanted to achieve the perfect harmony of heat and slightly sweet with a little tang in the background without taking away from the delicate flavor of the scallops. It was bang on!
 
Another reason why I love serving this Scallop Pineapple Ceviche to friends and family is because it doesn’t require any cooking. Are the scallops raw? NO… absolutely not! When submerging the seafood in citrus juice, the acidity will actually cook the scallops and turn the flesh opaque and firm. This method has been used since colonial times.
 
Heat kills bacteria whereas citric acid won’t, so it’s very and I mean very important to use fresh scallops. If you’re not sure about how fresh they are, quickly “blanch” the seafood for 90 seconds.
 
This Scallop Pineapple Ceviche is the perfect dish to make for your guests during the hot summer months. It’s a great appetizer to serve along with tortilla chips. It can also be a main course if you want to enjoy a light meal… out on the patio with a glass of white wine – definitely Zen!
Bon Appétit!
