Combine the lime juice, oil, peppercorns, salt and pepper together in a bowl. Stir in the scallops, cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours while they marinate. They should become opaque in this
time. Mash the avocado until almost smooth, then add it along with the chives or scallions to the marinating scallops (do not drain them) and mix well. Set aside for at least 1/2 hour, refrigerated.
About half an hour before serving the scallops, remove the stems from the mushrooms and wipe them to remove any dirt. Combine the vegetable oil, lemon juice, garlic, salt and pepper in a small bowl, and
brush the insides of the mushrooms liberally with the mixture. Just before serving, drain the caps and fill with the scallop mixture. Garnish scallop ceviche with additional chives, if desired. Serves 8.
