Indulge in a taste of the sea tonight with this refreshing and vibrant Seafood Salad, perfect for a light dinner that transports you to a Greek taverna.
Start by preparing the seafood. In a pot of boiling salted water, cook the shrimp for about 2-3 minutes until they turn pink. Remove them with a slotted spoon.
Next, add the calamari to the boiling water and cook for 1-2 minutes until tender. Drain and set aside.
In the same pot, add the mussels and cover. Cook for approximately 5 minutes until they open up, then discard any that do not open.
While the seafood cools, prepare the vegetables. Chop the cucumber, tomato, and red onion into small cubes.
In a large bowl, combine the cooled seafood, chopped vegetables, and minced parsley.
For the dressing, whisk together olive oil, juice of the lemon, salt, and pepper in a small bowl.
Pour the dressing over the seafood and vegetable mixture, and toss gently to combine everything evenly.
Lastly, crumble feta cheese on top and serve immediately or chill in the fridge for a refreshing cold salad.
