    I loved this recipe as well. For those who did not, try a few things. First of all, I didn't use all the marinade. Seafood is tricky, it can soak up a lot of flavor in a short amount of time. So, I saved some of it to mix up in other things. Secondly, taste the marinade before you put the scallops in it. I didn't put all the zest in right away because I did want to taste it first. I added just a touch of Orange Juice to it and some extra olive oil until I felt like it tasted good. Third, I only marinated the scallops (not the other ingredients and I only marinated them for about an hour as I checked the "doneness" of them and it was fine. I then added the other ingredients (onion, peppers, avocado, etc. when I put the whole thing together. I also added some artichoke hearts (canned or frozen. Very lightly drizzle the marinade over -- taste it before you get crazy with it!

    WARNING: DO NOT ADD ALL OF THE ZESTS! IT WILL BE VERY BITTER AND ACIDIC! I only used the juice and it was very nice and refreshing for summer. I also used giant scallops instead. Love this recipe...

    I was really looking forward to trying this recipe because I love scallops, and wanted to try ceviche. This recipe was a total waste of good ingredients. The marinade was so bitter and acidic that it burned my tongue. I ended up draining the marinade from the scallops and sauted the scallops just to salvage the $10 I spent on the seafood alone. I see that Emeril has a ceviche recipe and I will try his next time. But for now, I couldn't be more disappointed in this recipe.

    I am sorry to have wasted perfectly good seafood on this disgusting dish. I love ceviche, but the marinade was so bitter and acidic, it was absolutely unpalatable. We had to throw the whole thing out, seafood, salad leaves and all. Never making this again

    I love, love, love this dish! I was a bit afraid, given you're cooking raw seafood with citrus acid, but it was wonderful! I eliminate the radish and the red onion, and the dish was such wonderful complementing textures and flavors. I have substituted lime for the lemon, also, which is delicious.

    I tried this recipe last night. I spent ALL day looking for fresh bay scallops and good grapefruits. The marinate looked beautiful, very colorful, I thought It was going to turn out great. I didn't realize the scallops was raw until I got to the end of the recipe. My boyfriend hated it, he ask me to please don't make it ever again, He found the greens too sour, the grapejuice didn't help at all. I can't understand how could this recipe be any good.... never again!!!!
