The acidity of the citrus juices cooks the scallops. If you'd prefer, poach them for about 2 minutes before marinating. Serve this appetizer with tortilla chips for a refreshing start to a meal. Ingredients:
1 pound sea scallops |
1 cup fresh lime juice (about 4 limes) |
3/4 cup chopped onion |
1/4 cup fresh orange juice |
1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1 serrano pepper, thinly sliced |
Directions:
1. Cut each scallop horizontally into 3 even slices. Place scallops in a nonaluminum dish. Add lime juice and the remaining ingredients; toss to coat (juice mixture should cover scallops). Cover and refrigerate for at least 6 hours or overnight, stirring mixture occasionally. Serve the scallops cold using a slotted spoon. |
