Tips:

- Use high-quality, fresh scallops. Look for scallops that are plump and have a briny smell. Avoid scallops that are slimy or have a strong fishy odor. - Clean the scallops thoroughly before using them. Remove the tough outer muscle from the side of the scallops and rinse them well under cold water. - Cut the scallops into small pieces. This will help them to cook evenly and absorb the flavors of the marinade. - Use a variety of citrus juices in the marinade. This will give the ceviche a bright and complex flavor. - Add some heat to the ceviche with chili peppers or jalapeƱos. This is optional, but it can add a nice kick of spice. - Marinate the ceviche for at least 30 minutes, but no longer than 2 hours. This will allow the scallops to soak up the flavors of the marinade without becoming overcooked. - Serve the ceviche immediately after marinating. It is best enjoyed fresh.
