Directions
Chop the scallops into bite-sized pieces and tossing them into a big bowl. Peel and segment the clementines, then add them along with diced tomato, finely chopped red onion, and some sliced scallions. Squeeze in fresh lemon and lime juice, and add a minced garlic clove for a little kick. Sprinkle in some chopped cilantro and drizzle everything with olive oil. Give it a good mix, then season with salt to taste. Cover the bowl and pop it in the fridge for about two hours, stirring every now and then so all the flavors get to know each other. When it’s ready, give it one last stir and serve chilled.
