Ingredients

  • 1-1/4 pound Lobster
  • 1 whole Onion
  • 2 whole Lemons
  • 1 stalk Celery
  • 1-1/2 pound Shrimp
  • 1-1/2 pound Scallops
  • Olive Oil
  • 1/4 cups Mayonnaise
  • 1 teaspoon Chili Powder
  • Salt
  • Pepper
  • 2 whole Avocados

Directions

  1. 1
    Bring large pot of water to boil, dropping lobster in and cooking for approximately 10 minutes.
  2. 2
    Drain and cool, removing all the meat from the tail, claws, joints, and back. Dice the tail and claws into chunks. Set aside.
  3. 3
    Quarter the onion, quarter 1 lemon, and cut the celery stalk in half. Bring another pot of water to a boil with the onion, lemon, and celery in the pot. Add the shrimp and cook until bright pink, approximately 5-6 minutes. Drain immediately and drop in cold water. Peel and halve shrimp, set aside.
  4. 4
    Saute scallops in a little bit of olive oil until done, approximately 5-6 minutes. Set aside.
  5. 5
    In a medium bowl, combine the juice of 1 lemon, mayonnaise, chili powder, and salt and pepper. The sauce should be thin, but not runny. If runny, add a little more mayonnaise. Taste and alter seasonings accordingly. Add seafood to bowl, stir to coat.
  6. 6
    Cut avocado in half, remove pit, scoop from skin. Keep halves intact, placing each on a plate. Fill the center, allowing to overflow onto the plate, with 1/4 of the salad mixture.
