MARISCOS DE CAMPECHANA

Steps:

• Combine the oil, one third of the jalapenos, garlic, chili flakes and a pinch of salt and pepper in a bowl. Add the shrimp and toss to coat. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
• Grill the shrimp over medium heat, about 2 minutes per side. Roughly chop.
• Mix together the tomatoes, cocktail sauce, onion and remaining jalapenos in a large bowl. Fold in the shrimp, crab, oysters, avocado and cilantro. Stir in the lime juice and salt and pepper to taste. Serve with the tortilla chips.

CAMPECHANA EXTRA (MEXICAN SEAFOOD COCKTAIL)

Steps:

• Prepare a grill for medium-high heat or preheat broiler. If broiling, place chiles on a rimmed baking sheet. Grill, broil, or roast chiles directly over flame on stovetop, turning occasionally, until very tender and blackened all over, 10-12 minutes. Poblanos might take a little longer, so test doneness with a paring knife.
• Transfer chiles to a large bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and let steam 15 minutes. Peel chiles. Halve lengthwise, discard seeds, and chop into 1/4" pieces.
• Meanwhile, bring a medium pot of generously salted water to a boil. Cook shrimp until just opaque and pink, 2-3 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer to an ice bath and let sit until cool, about 3 minutes. Drain and pat dry.
• Mix chiles, tomato, jalapeños, Clamato juice, ketchup, olives, cilantro, onion, oregano, garlic, lime juice, oil, and 1/4 tsp. salt in a large bowl. Carefully fold in shrimp, crab, and avocado.
• Transfer to a serving bowl or tall sundae glass and top with bay leaf, if using. Serve with tortilla chips alongside.
• Do Ahead
• Salsa base (without seafood and avocado) can be made 1 day ahead. Transfer to a resealable container and chill.
