Sublime Lime

This is what I threw together to try out my new lime olive oil from Pasolivo:
I sauteed some garlic and green onions in 2 T. of the lime oil, then cooked scallops, and added some red chili flakes, lime zest, and salt and pepper. I served it with a spicy chili sauce (mix mayo with a generous pour of Szechwan chili sauce).

We also had a limey orzo salad:
3 c. cooked orzo
zest from one large lime
2 zucchini, grated (raw)
8 oz. grated pepper jack cheese
toss with a little lime olive oil

Another easy, quick dinner!

I was reading this and thinking, "oh, good! An idea for the olive oil I bought at Pasolivo." Then I remembered that I bought mandarin flavored oil - not lime. oops. :) (I might try it anyway!)
