How to Make Fresh Seafood Salsa

  1. Combine lime juice, orange juice, and jalapeño in a medium bowl. Taste and adjust to your desired level of spiciness.
  2. Add the chopped red onion, cilantro, and tomatoes to the bowl.
  3. Cut the shrimp, scallops, and fish into ½-inch pieces.
  4. Add the seafood to the citrus mixture. Gently toss to ensure all the seafood is coated.
  5. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or up to 4 hours, allowing the lime juice to 'cook' the seafood. The seafood should be opaque and firm.
  6. Before serving, taste and adjust seasonings. Add salt and pepper to taste.
  7. Garnish with extra cilantro and serve immediately with tortilla chips or your favorite accompaniments.
