Fresh Fish Cocktail Dip (High-Protein)
Poached white fish is flaked and folded through a bright tomato-lime cocktail base with avocado, cucumber and jalapeño, then finished with extra shrimp and a cannellini bean purée for protein. Served chilled with cilantro and lime, it eats like a Mexican coastal ceviche-style dip.

Instructions
1
Prep
Dice the tomato, avocado, cucumber, onion and jalapeño into small even cubes and set aside in separate piles.
2
Poach the white fish fillet in simmering salted water over medium heat for 5–6 minutes until opaque and flaking easily with a fork.
3
Add the shrimp to the pot and poach over medium heat for 2 minutes until pink and opaque throughout.
4
Drain the fish and shrimp on a plate to cool 5 minutes, then flake the fish and chop the shrimp.
5
Mash the cannellini beans in a bowl with a fork until mostly smooth, then stir in the lime juice, ketchup, hot sauce and olive oil until combined.
6
Fold the flaked fish, chopped shrimp, tomato, cucumber, onion, jalapeño and cilantro gently into the bean mixture until evenly coated.
7
Chill the dip, covered, for 20 minutes so flavours meld and it turns properly cold.
8
Plate
Fold in the diced avocado last, season with salt, and spoon into a chilled bowl with tortilla chips alongside.
