Grilled Scallops with Pear-Ginger Coulis Recipe
Serves/Makes: 4
Ingredients:
- 1 pound sea scallops, rinsed and patted dry
- 4 teaspoons olive oil
- 1 small onion, chopped
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh ginger
- 3 medium-size firm-ripe pears, peeled, cored, and diced
- 1/4 cup rice vinegar or white wine vinegar
- Heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil in a 2-quart pan over medium-high heat.
- Add onion and cook, stirring often, until soft but not browned (3 to 5 minutes).
- Add ginger, pears, and vinegar. Cook, stirring occasionally, until pears are tender when pierced (12 to 15 minutes).
- Transfer mixture to a food processor or blender whirl until smoothly pureed. Return to pan and keep warm over lowest heat.

- Saute lightly for 5-7 minutes until scallops are opaque in center.
