For a richer flavor, consider adding a squeeze of fresh lemon juice to the dressing before tossing with the seafood. If you don't have celery leaves, you can substitute them with finely chopped celery stalks. Be careful not to overcook the scallops and shrimp, as they will become rubbery. Watch them closely and remove them from the heat as soon as they are cooked through. For the corn oil, you can replace it with the same amount of light olive oil, so it will be much healthier. If you are in a rush, you can reduce the refrigeration time to at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld properly.
