Ingredients:

Serving

20 large sea scallops
olive oil
salt
freshly ground black pepper
10 blue corn tortilla chips
10 yellow corn tortilla chips
avocado puree , recipe follows
jalapeno pesto , recipe follows
cilantro leaves, for garnish
1 ripe hass avocado, peeled, pitted and coarsely chopped
2 tbsp chopped red onion

Heat grill to high. Brush scallops on both sides with the oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill the scallops until golden brown and slightly charred and just cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes per side.
