At the same time, bring a small pot of water to a boil and prepare an ice bath to blanch the tomato.<br \/>\n<br \/>\nWhile the scallops are marinating, slice the red onion and jalapenos into fine slices. Cut an \u201cX\u201d shape on the tomato. Blanch the tomato for 7-10 seconds, then transfer it to ice. When cooled, peel the tomato and remove seeds. Place tomato in a blender and puree. Reserve a cilantro leaf for each portion, then chop the rest.<br \/>\n<br \/>\nWhen scallops are ready, place them in a stainless steel or glass bowl. Add onions, jalapenos, tomato, cilantro and just enough lime juice to cover the mixture. Mix gently. Cover for 10 minutes or up to a few hours.
