From a magazine. Wish you could see the photo. Very pretty presentation. Serves 4 as a main course or makes 24 hors d'oeuvres. Grilled scallops' carmelized crust brings out their sweetness. Ingredients:
1/2 cup red onion, finely chopped |
3/4 teaspoon salt |
1 large tomato, seeded, chopped |
4 teaspoons red wine vinegar |
1 teaspoon sugar |
2 tablespoons fresh dill, chopped |
24 sea scallops, about 1 1/2 lbs |
vegetable oil, to brush grill |
Directions:
1. Prepare grill. 2. Soak onion in 1 cup of water with 1/2 teaspoons salt for 15 minutes and then drain. 3. Stir together the onion, tomato, vinegar, sugar and remaining 1/4 teaspoons salt and let stand for 20 minutes. 4. Drain relish in a sieve, discarding liquid, then stir in dill. 5. Cook the scallops while the relish is standing by patting them dry with paper towels and adding salt and pepper to season. 6. Grill in 2 batched on lightly oiled grill rack, turning once, until just cooked through, 4-5 minutes. 7. Serve scallops with relish. |
