Instructions

5 steps

1
Bring a pot of water to a gentle boil and blanch the shrimp for about 90 seconds, then the squid for 60 seconds, until just opaque and tender; drain and let cool slightly.

2
In a large bowl, whisk together the lime juice, fish sauce, sugar, chilies, and garlic until the sugar dissolves to make a punchy dressing.
3
Add the warm seafood to the dressing along with the shallots, tossing to coat while the seafood is still warm so it absorbs the flavors.
4
Fold in the cilantro and green onions just before serving to keep them fresh and bright.
5
Plate over a bed of crisp lettuce and serve at room temperature.
