Ingredients

1 pound fresh bay or sea scallops, well drained
1/4 cup finely chopped onions
2 tablespoons chopped fresh coriander leaves
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon finely chopped drained, bottled jalapeno pepper
1/4 cup finely diced seeded fresh tomato
2 tablespoons unflavored oil such as safflower, corn or peanut
Salt to taste, if desired
Freshly ground pepper to taste
Buttered toast triangles (see instructions)

Steps:

Put the scallops on a flat surface and chop finely with a knife. Do not use a food processor or electric blender. You do not want to make a smooth paste. There should be about two cups or slightly less, closely packed.
Put the chopped scallops in a mixing bowl and add the onions, coriander, lemon juice, jalapeno pepper, tomato, oil, salt and pepper. Blend well. Serve in small portions with buttered toast triangles.
