Ingredients
1 pound squid
1 pound shrimp
1 pound scallops
Salt to taste, if desired
3 tablespoons lemon juice
1 tablespoon white-wine vinegar
¾ cup olive oil
6 tablespoons diced roasted green chili peppers (available in specialty food stores)
¾ cup chopped Italian parsley
3 medium-sized tomatoes, seeded and cut into ¼-inch dice
6 tablespoons sliced scallions
10 cups mixed greens, loosely packed
Freshly ground pepper to taste
Preparation
- Step 1
Clean the squid and cut the bodies into one-quarter-inch rings; leave the tentacles whole if small; halve them if large.
- Step 2
Cook the squid in a large pot of lightly salted boiling water until just opaque - a minute or less. Remove with a slotted spoon, drain and rinse immediately with cold water to prevent overcooking.
- Step 3
Cook the shrimp in the same boiling water until just done - two to five minutes, depending on size. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain.
- Step 4
Finally, cook the scallops in the same boiling water until just done - two to four minutes, depending on size. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain.
- Step 5
Combine the remaining ingredients, except the greens, in a large mixing bowl. Toss the seafood in this dressing and marinate, refrigerated, for one to four hours. Correct seasonings and serve on a bed of greens.
