Slit the chiles and remove seeds and veins. Blanch quickly in water with
1 tablespoon of vinegar (about 1 min.). Drain and cool.
In food processor, finely chop the shrimps and crabmeat. Mix in the minced
scallions and mayonnaise.
Sprinkle with lemon juice and stir again. Stuff the chiles with the
seafood mixture and arrange on a plate. If serving as a salad, place 3 to 4
stuffed chiles on a bed of lettuce. As an appetizer, arrange on an
attractive serving plate and add a garnish of jalapeno chile on the side.
