- Juice of 2 limes
- 1 small hot pepper, seeded and chopped

- Mix the citrus juices, olive oil, and chopped hot pepper.
- Pour the juice mixture over the scallops until fully covered.
- Season with salt and add the finely chopped mint.
For an extra touch, you can add some candied orange zest. To make them, blanch the zest (removing the white part) three times. Then, cover with equal parts water and sugar, and cook on low heat until the peel becomes translucent.
