Prawns and Scallop Posole

This prawn and scallop posole offers a sophisticated twist on the traditional Mexican stew. By combining succulent seafood with the unique, chewy texture of white hominy, this dairy-free main course creates a light yet deeply satisfying meal. The base is infused with zesty salsa verde and fragrant lime peel, providing a vibrant green hue and a bright, citrusy finish that perfectly complements the sweetness of the shellfish.

Ideal for a quick midweek dinner or an elegant weekend lunch, this seafood soup is naturally low in fat while remaining high in protein. The broth can be prepared up to four hours in advance, making it a convenient option for those who enjoy effortless entertaining. Serve it in deep bowls with a scattering of fresh coriander and a side of warm corn tortillas for a complete, nutritious feast.
