BAY SCALLOPS WITH SCALLIONS AND SESAME SEEDS
This simple recipe, adapted from David Paultstich, the chef at The Mark Hotel in New York, calls for just five ingredients - the best bay scallops you can find, butter, scallions, lemon juice and toasted sesame seeds. The gentle bite of the scallions and the tang of the lemon complement the natural sweetness of shellfish while a shower of sesame seeds adds a nutty, delicate crunch.

Steps:
- Bring 2 tablespoons of water to a boil in a small nonreactive saucepan, lower the heat and whisk in the butter a little at a time until the mixture becomes saucy.
- Add the scallions, then lemon juice, salt and pepper to taste. Keep warm over very low heat while cooking the scallops.
- Preheat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat for 2 minutes. Add the scallops; do not crowd. Cook without stirring until they brown lightly on one side, about 2 minutes. Turn and brown the other side.
- Serve the scallops drizzled with a little of the sauce and sprinkled with sesame seeds.
SOY-BUTTER BASTED SCALLOPS WITH WILTED GREENS AND SESAME
This simple dish was inspired by a recipe for steamed scallop and butter rice found in "Donabe: Classic and Modern Japanese Clay Pot Cooking" (Ten Speed, 2015) by Naoko Takei Moore and Kyle Connaughton. Here, sweet sea scallops are seared in a hot pan and basted with melted butter and soy sauce to finish cooking. Tender greens are sautéed in garlic oil, then the scallops are placed on top and everything is drizzled with the remaining soy-butter and a bit of sesame oil. Finish the dish with a good squeeze of lime, thinly sliced scallions and a smattering of sesame seeds. It's wonderful served over steamed white rice, so be sure to get that on the stove before you begin cooking the scallops, as the rest of the meal comes together in no time at all.

Steps:
- Heat the oven to 200 degrees. Season the scallops well with salt and pepper. Heat a 12-inch cast-iron skillet over medium-high. Add 2 tablespoons grapeseed oil and, when it shimmers, add the scallops. Cook undisturbed for 2 to 3 minutes, until they begin to brown and form a crust on the bottom.
- Flip the scallops, add the butter and soy sauce to the pan and use a spoon to repeatedly drizzle the sauce over the tops of the scallops to finish cooking, 1 to 2 minutes more.
- Set the scallops on an oven-safe plate and pour the butter mixture on top. Place the plate in the oven to keep the scallops warm while you finish the rest of the dish.
- Add the remaining 1 tablespoon grapeseed oil to the skillet and heat over medium. Add the garlic and red-pepper flakes, if using, and cook until the garlic is pale golden, about 2 minutes, adding a teaspoon or so more of grapeseed oil if needed. Return the heat to medium-high and add the spinach, in batches, if needed, and season with salt. Toss until the spinach wilts, adding a few teaspoons of water to help it along, if needed, and scrape the browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Turn off the heat.
- Add the scallops back to the pan and pour any residual butter-sauce over top. Drizzle the dish with sesame oil and a good squeeze of lime. Top with scallions and sesame seeds, if using, and serve with rice.

GRILLED BAY SCALLOPS
Growing up in Florida, our family would take our boat out in Tampa Bay and gather scallops. When we returned home, my father would grill them with butter. I think this is the best way to enjoy bay scallops because grilling really brings out their sweet flavor. Serve with extra butter and a lemon wedge.

BAY SCALLOPS WITH GARLIC PARSLEY BUTTER SAUCE
They say smell is the sense most closely linked to memory recall, and that was certainly the case while making these garlicky, buttery bay scallops on toast. As waves of the wonderful aromas wafted up from the pan, they brought back a flood of vivid memories of my first kitchen job.
