 Categories: Seafood, Booze; citr, Herbs, Vegetables
      Yield: 6 Servings
 
     20 lg Sea scallops
     20 lg Shrimp
    1/4 c  Tequila
    1/4 c  Lime juice
    1/4 c  Olive oil
      2 tb Snipped fresh oregano
      2 ts Sugar
      2 ts Salt
      4 cl Garlic; sliced
    1/2 ts Paprika
      1 lb Jicama; peeled, in bite-size
           - strips
      1 md Avocado; halved, seeded,
           - peeled, thin sliced
    1/2 c  Fresh cilantro leaves
           - Salt & ground black pepper
           - Lime wedges
 
  Thaw scallops and shrimp, if frozen. Peel and devein
  shrimp. Rinse scallops and shrimp with cold water; pat dry
  with paper towels. Place scallops and shrimp in a large
  resealable plastic bag set in a shallow dish; set aside.
  
  In a small bowl stir together tequila, lime juice, olive
  oil, oregano, sugar, the 2 teaspoons salt, the garlic, and
  paprika. Set aside 1/2 cup of the tequila mixture to use
  in the jicama slaw. Pour the remaining tequila mixture
  over the scallops and shrimp. Seal bag; turn to coat
  scallops and shrimp. Marinate at room temperature for 15
  minutes, turning bag occasionally.
  
  Meanwhile, for the jicama slaw, in a medium bowl combine
  jicama, avocado, and cilantro. Pour the reserved 1/2 cup
  tequila mixture over jicama mixture. Toss to combine.
  Season to taste with salt and pepper. Cover and chill
  until serving time.
  
  Drain scallops and shrimp; discard marinade. On six long
  skewers, alternately thread scallops and shrimp, leaving
  1/4 inch between pieces. For a charcoal or gas grill,
  place skewers on the rack of a covered grill directly over
  medium-high heat. Grill for 8 to 10 minutes or until
  scallops and shrimp are opaque, turning once halfway
  through grilling. Serve skewers with jicama slaw and lime
  wedges.
