Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound (450 g / 15.9 oz) seafood (cooked shrimp, real crab, or any firm white fish, chilled)
  • 2 large avocados, peeled and cubed
  • 2 ripe tomatoes, cubed
  • 4 to 6 green onions, minced
  • Juice of 1 large lime or lemon
  • 1 tbsp (15 ml) macadamia nut or avocado oil
  • 1/4 cup (15 g / 0.53 oz) fresh cilantro, chopped
  • Celtic sea salt and fresh black pepper, to taste
  • For the best texture, use pre-cooked, chilled shrimp. If using raw fish, poach or grill it first and let it cool completely before adding it to the salad.
  • Choose avocados that are ripe but still firm to the touch. This ensures they hold their shape when cubed and tossed, rather than turning to mush.
  • For a touch of heat, finely mince half a jalapeño (seeds removed for less spice) and add it to the salad along with the other .
  • If prepping ahead, you can chop the tomatoes, green onions, and cilantro and store them in an airtight container. Wait to cube the avocado and combine everything until just before serving to maintain maximum freshness.

Method
 

  1. Directions
  2. In a large bowl, gently combine the seafood, cubed avocado, tomatoes, green onions, and chopped cilantro. Immediately pour the lime or lemon juice over the mixture and toss gently to coat everything. This is key to preventing the avocado from browning.
  3. Drizzle with macadamia nut or avocado oil and season with Celtic sea salt and fresh pepper.
  4. Toss once more to combine.
  5. For the best flavor and texture, serve immediately, perhaps over a bed of crisp lettuce. This recipe makes 4 servings.
