Ingredients:

Serving

1 lb sea scallops, rinsed and drained
1 lb large shrimp, peeled and deveined
1 cup red bell pepper, diced (a mixture of red and yellow is really nice)
3/4 cup red onion, minced
3 tbsp green onion, sliced
1/3 cup orange juice
2 tbsp lime juice
1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp jerk seasoning , or to taste
1 tbsp fresh basil leaves, minced

Directions:

Heat oil in a skillet with high heat. Add scallops and sear until done on each side. Don't overcook. Put scallops in medium bowl and chill. Quarter scallops when chilled.
Saute shrimp in same pan until shrimp turn pink. Put in another bowl and chill.
Combine marinade ingredients (o. j. through jerk seasoning). Combine shrimp, scallops, veggies and pour marinade over all. Toss gently, cover & refrigerate at least an hour, but I like it done the day before to let the flavors marry nicely.
