Steps:
- In a medium bowl, mix together 1/4 cup olive oil, the lime juice, soy sauce, cilantro, chile flakes and garlic. Sprinkle the scallops with salt and pepper. Add the scallops to the marinade, cover with plastic and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
- Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil in medium, heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Remove the scallops from the marinade, discard the marinade, and place the scallops in the skillet. Sear until lightly browned and cooked to desired doneness, 2 to 3 minutes per side for medium-rare. Arrange the scallops decoratively on a platter and serve with lime wedges.
SCALLOPS WITH AVOCADO SALSA
This is an awesome accidental find that I came across on msn.com, credited to Food & Wine. I can't possibly express how delicious this dish is. Each component is wonderful- it's almost a three-for-one deal- one recipe with 3 things that you can make just on their own. I hope you enjoy this as much as we did. Couldn't wait to share with you all!

Steps:
- In a large bowl, combine basil, lime juice, olive oil, onion, jalapeno and garlic.
- With rubber spatula, gently fold in the avocados.
- Season with salt and pepper.
- In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil until shimmering. Season the scallops with salt and pepper and cook over high heat until browned outside, but still rare in the center- about 2 minutes per side.
- Transfer scallops to warmed platter- keep them warm.
- Add water and tomatoes to the same skillet and cook over med-high heat, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom until the water has reduced- this happens in about 2 minutes.
- Remove from heat and stir in the balsamic vinegar.
- Season with salt and pepper.
- Pour the tomato sauce over the scallops and serve with avocado salsa on the side.
- *Use the salsa and the sauce on steak, shrimp, with chips, in a sandwich -- the possibilities are endless!

Steps:
- First prepare the tomatillo guacamole, cilantro-lime rice, and mango salsa and set aside.
- Remove the tough ligament from the side of each scallop and discard. Pat the scallops dry with a paper towel to remove excess moisture. Season both sides of each scallop with salt, and cumin.
- In a large cast iron skillet, melt butter over medium-high heat. Allow the skillet to get as hot as possible without burning the butter.
- Sear the scallops, turning once, until golden brown on each side, and just cooked through, about 3-5 minutes total. Transfer to a platter and quarter.
- To assemble, toast corn tortillas, if desired, over an open flame just until slightly charred. Fill each tortilla with 2 tablespoons rice, 1 tablespoon guacamole, 1 seared and quartered scallop, and top with mango salsa. Repeat with remaining ingredients.
- To make guacamole:
- Combine the tomatillos, cilantro, avocado, onion, jalapeno, garlic, lime juice, cumin, and salt in a food processor or blender and pulse until combined.
- To make the rice:
- In a small saucepan, bring the rice, cilantro, broth, rice, and lime juice to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat to a simmer, cover and cook for 20 minutes, or until the rice is tender. Remove the cilantro sprigs and serve.
- To make the salsa:
- Combine the mango, tomatoes, minced onion, cilantro, chile, lime zest, and lime juice in a small bowl. Allow the flavors to macerate. Serve as a garnish for the cumin seared scallop tacos.

Steps:
- In a medium ceramic or glass bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons of oil, 2 tablespoons of lime juice, ½ teaspoons of grated zest, ¼ teaspoons of salt, cumin, pepper and crushed red pepper flakes (if using.)
- Add the scallops and marinate, covered, in the refrigerator for 1 hour(remember the lime juice can cook the scallops if kept there too long and they may become rubbery.)
- In a large nonstick skillet, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil over medium-high heat until hot.
- Add the tortilla wedges in batches and cook until golden brown on both sides, 1 to 2 minutes.
- Drain the wedges on paper towels.
- Peel, pit, and coarsely mash the avocados in another medium bowl.
- Stir in the onion, yogurt, and remaining lime juice, zest, and salt.
- When ready to serve, preheat the grill or broiler. In a broiler pan, cook the scallops about 3 inches from the heat until cooked through, about 4 to 5 minutes.
- To serve, spread 2 teaspoons of avocado cream on each tortilla wedge.
- Top with 1 tablespoons of lettuce and 1 scallop, and finish with about 1 tablespoons of salsa.
- Repeat with the remaining ingredients.

- Garlicky Buttery Scallops. This basic seared scallop recipe lets fresh seafood shine in a simple garlic butter sauce. To achieve a truly golden crust, cook the scallops primarily on one side over medium-high heat and try not to move them around, then flip and kiss the other side with just a touch of heat.
- Grilled Scallops With Nori, Ginger, and Lime. Served with lime mayo, these nori-and-spice-rubbed scallops gain a smoky dimension from the grill. Aleppo-style pepper flakes bring warm depth without adding too much heat.
- Seared Scallops With Red Chile Paste and Fennel Salad. Sear these scallops on only one side to preserve the meltingly tender, near-raw texture on the other end.
- Grilled Scallops With Peach Sweet Chili Sauce. Inspired by the grilled fish-ball skewers found on the streets of Bangkok, this recipe pairs grilled, lightly smoky scallops with a tangy peach and chili sauce.
- Scallops With Red Aguachile and Pickled Onions. This recipe from former guest editor Marcus Samuelsson accents thinly sliced raw scallops with fiery aguachile, cooling cucumber, and zingy pickled onions.
- Sea Scallops With Celery Root and Meyer Lemon Salad. Keep this easy recipe for seared scallops on hand for last-minute hosting: the shellfish cooks in just 2 minutes, and the crisp celery root and Meyer lemon slaw provides refreshing contrast.
- Pan-Seared Scallops With Chorizo and Corn. Instead of butter, sear scallops in chorizo oil to achieve a tender, succulent texture with a slightly smoky, savory flavor.
- Spicy Tomato Shellfish Stew. This dynamic fish stew packs in littleneck clams, mussels, scallops, and anchovies—so, all the good things. Don’t forget crusty bread for dunking.
- Seared Scallops With Brown Butter and Lemon Pan Sauce. Sear scallops in olive oil, then coat them in a glossy, ultra-simple pan sauce of butter, lemon juice, and capers.
- Grilled Scallops With Creamed Corn. Instead of drowning beautiful, briny scallops in a heavy cream sauce, coat them in a chile-thyme dry rub and serve them over a plate of bright creamed corn enriched with a pat of unsalted butter.
