2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

Directions
1.
Lay the palm coins in a single layer in a non-reactive dish. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons of the lime juice, 3 tablespoons water, and the olive oil. Sprinkle evenly with sugar and a generous pinch of salt. Shake the dish to coat the palm coins and let sit while preparing the remaining ingredients.
