For the wasabi vinaigrette:
- Mix all the ingredients together. Season with salt and lime juice to taste.
- Place the seasoned scallops and jicama on bottom of the plate alternating them. Add 1 ounce of the cucumber juice, dress with the wasabi vinaigrette, garnish with the serrano slices, cilantro leaves, and red onion. Finish with sea salt.
