SEARED SEA SCALLOPS WITH GINGER-LIME BUTTER
Day-boat scallops, the kind that are dry-packed (never frozen or dosed with preservatives), are what you want for this decadent but very simple dish. The scallops are seared on cast iron, but gradually, for a crisp, well-browned surface that intensifies their natural sweetness. Ginger, lime and hot pepper enhance the rich meatiness of all fresh seafood, and here especially so. A roasted sweet potato and a pile of blanched bok choy complete this quintessentially elegant, fast-food meal.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 400 degrees. Wash sweet potatoes and wrap them tightly in foil. Roast until tender, 45 minutes to 1 hour. (If you are using larger sweet potatoes, they may require 15 minutes more in the oven.)
- Using a paring knife, remove the small hard "foot" from the edge of each scallop. Pat scallops dry and season on both sides with salt and pepper.
- Put on a medium pot of salted water to boil for the greens.
- Meanwhile, make the ginger butter: Combine butter, ginger, chile and lime zest and juice and stir together until well incorporated. Season with salt to taste. Set aside.
- Take a cast-iron skillet large enough to hold the scallops without crowding and place over medium-high heat. Add a film of olive oil. When the oil is nearly smoking, add the scallops in one layer and let them sizzle. Reduce heat to medium and continue to cook for at least 5 minutes. Use a small spatula to check the scallops as they brown, allowing them to color gradually. They should be quite crisp and well caramelized. Turn off heat and flip scallops. Leave in pan until firm to the touch.
- While the scallops are cooking, blanch the bok choy: Cook it for 1 minute in the salted boiling water, then drain and blot on a kitchen towel. Keep warm.
- Remove and place scallops, browned side up, onto warmed serving plates. Surround with the bok choy leaves and halved or sliced sweet potatoes.
- Quickly warm the butter in the cast-iron pan and spoon over everything. Sprinkle with cilantro if desired.

- In order to get a great sear on the scallops, pat them dry the night before and place them in the fridge for 2-3 hours uncovered. Once they are dry, mix the salt, pepper and garlic. Season the scallops on all sides and place back into the fridge until the fire is ready.
- Preheat your fire to high heat (around 425F). Add your cast iron skillet over the coals 1-2 minutes before cooking with 2 tbsp of canola oil. Add another basting skillet to a cooler side of the skillet as well to preheat.
- Add the scallops to the skillet. You should hear an audible sizzling sound as they hit the skillet. Let them cook for 1-1.5 minutes per side letting them sear and caramelize to your desired likeness. Once they are done, pull them off and let them rest for 2-3 minutes.
- In the basting skillet, add some oil with the minced garlic. Let cook for 30 seconds to brown, then add the red chili flakes and lime juice. Mix everything in the skillet, then add the rest of the ingredients. Add the butter last to the skillet and let it melt slowly. Let the butter mixture cook for 1-2 minutes until fully melted, then pull it off immediately.
