Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 1/2 pounds jumbo sea scallops
5 tablespoons olive oil
2 large ripe tomatoes, seeded and cut in eighths
1 medium red onion, cut in eighths
2 cloves garlic, crushed
1 cup dry white wine
2 tablespoons salted capers, rinsed and drained
1 tablespoon chopped nicoise olives
1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme leaves
1 teaspoon chopped fresh rosemary leaves
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees and preheat grill to hot. Wipe the scallops dry with paper towels and brush them with a tablespoon of olive oil. Grill over very high heat just enough to make crosshatch marks on both sides. Do not cook any longer.
  • Heat a tablespoon olive oil in a saucepan. Add the tomato and onion and saute for five minutes. Add the garlic and wine and cook two minutes more. Stir in the capers, olives, thyme, half a teaspoon of rosemary, the remaining three tablespoons of olive oil and salt and pepper.
  • Pour mixture into a baking dish and arrange scallops on top. Bake for five minutes. Remove from oven and cool. Sprinkle with the extra-virgin olive oil and remaining rosemary and serve at room temperature.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover scallops. I had some leftover from a seafood boil and this was the perfect way to use them up.

I'm not a huge fan of scallops, but I thought this recipe was pretty good. The tomatoes and onions really helped to balance out the flavor of the scallops.

This recipe was an absolute delight! The scallops were perfectly seared and the tomatoes and onions added a delicious sweetness and acidity. I served it over a bed of rice and it was a hit with my family.
