Red Meat Allergy Friendly Scallop Ceviche with Lime and Jalapeño

Bright, citrusy, and just spicy enough to keep things interesting, this scallop ceviche is the kind of dish that feels like a restaurant treat but comes together entirely in your own kitchen. Bay scallops are gently cured in fresh lime juice until opaque and tender — no heat required — then tossed with jalapeño, red onion, cucumber, and cilantro for a bowl that's as vibrant to look at as it is to eat. For anyone navigating a red meat allergy, seafood-based dishes like this are a natural go-to, and scallops are a particularly elegant choice that never feels like a compromise. Every ingredient here is clean and straightforward, so there's no guesswork about what's in your bowl. The optional avocado adds a creamy, cooling contrast to the lime and heat that's genuinely hard to resist. Serve it in small glasses for a party appetizer or in a bowl with tortilla chips for a casual weeknight treat — either way, it disappears fast.
