  • 60 milliliters orange juice, freshly squeezed
  • 80 milliliters olive oil
  • 30 milliliters white wine vinegar

Directions

Step 1

Bring a large pot of salted water to a gentle boil.

Step 2

Add the shrimp, scallops, and calamari rings to the pot and poach for 2-3 minutes until the seafood is just cooked through and tender. Be careful not to overcook.

Step 3

Drain the seafood and immediately transfer it to an ice bath to stop the cooking process. Once cooled, drain the seafood thoroughly and pat dry with paper towels.

Step 4

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, orange juice, olive oil, white wine vinegar, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper to create the citrus dressing.

Step 5

Add the cooked and cooled seafood to the bowl with the dressing and toss to coat evenly.

Step 6

Stir in the parsley, red onion, celery, and red bell pepper. Mix gently to combine.

Step 7

Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 24 hours to allow the flavors to meld. Stir occasionally if possible.

Step 8

Before serving, taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt or pepper if needed.

Step 9

Optional: Serve the salad over a bed of baby arugula for added freshness and texture.
