Ingredients

• 6 large fresh sea scallops
• 0.5 whole lemon
• 0.5 whole lime
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 1 teaspoon sesame oil
• 1 teaspoon fresh ginger root
• 0.5 whole jalapeño
• 0.25 teaspoon sea salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro

Directions

Step 1

Carefully rinse and pat dry the sea scallops. Slice each scallop horizontally into thin discs, about 1/4 inch thick, and set them aside on a plate.

Step 2

Zest half a lemon and half a lime using a microplane or fine grater, making sure not to reach the white pith. Reserve the zest.

Step 3

Juice the halved lemon and lime into a small mixing bowl. Add the soy sauce, sesame oil, and freshly grated ginger. Stir to combine.

Step 4

Thinly slice the jalapeño, removing the seeds for less heat, if desired, and add to the bowl with the citrus-soy mixture.

Step 5

On a serving platter, fan out the scallop slices into a circular pattern. Drizzle the citrus-soy dressing evenly over the scallops.

Step 6

Season the scallops lightly with sea salt and a dash of black pepper to taste.

Step 7

Sprinkle the reserved lemon and lime zest over the scallops for an added burst of citrus aroma.

Step 8

Finely chop the fresh cilantro and scatter it over the dish for a touch of herbal brightness.

Step 9

Serve immediately as a refreshing keto-friendly appetizer or as part of a main dish.
