For this being my first time making the dish I was very pleased with how it turned out! Van - I did fear the scallops turning out that way. But as long as they were not overdone, they were tender and not dry. The tapenade is an absolute must to give them the flavor it needed otherwise you're left with that 'seafood' taste and smell. Bob - I think citrus goes well with most seafood anyway. But I agree tapenade with orange is definitely different! If I was to do the dish over again I would probably put a bit more orange peel. The olives are very strong (but I like that) and has the potential to drown out the citrus flavoring. WC – thank you.

I'm not an olive fan but I like tapenade. I've never seen one with orange before, it sounds great! You know, it’s weird. I’m not an olive fan but I like tapenade.

That said, the kalamata olives, orange peel and cayenne pepper mix is unique. Nice work! I find Scallops to be interesting – sometimes I love them, other times they are rubbery and blah.
