Best Grilled Jumbo Sea Scallops With Roasted Corn And Peach Salad Recipes
GRILLED SCALLOPS WITH PEACHES, CORN AND TOMATOES
The easiest hot-weather supper, this salad benefits from peak-summer ingredients, which need very little prep. You can throw the corn cobs and halved peaches directly on the grill, but if your scallops are small enough to fall through the grates, you should skewer them onto metal skewers or wooden skewers that have been soaked in water. The only thing worse than losing a sweet, meaty scallop into the fire would be overcooking it, so be sure to remove the scallops from the grill before they're fully opaque.

Steps:
- Heat a charcoal or gas grill until very hot. Brush the grill grate with a little oil and put it 3 or 4 inches from the heat.
- Brush the corn and peaches with the oil, season with salt and pepper and grill until lightly browned all over. Strip the corn kernels off the cobs and chop the peaches; transfer to a large bowl.
- Brush the scallops with oil, sprinkle with salt and pepper and grill until they're brown and release easily from the grill, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Take the scallops off the grill before the interior becomes totally opaque.
- Halve the scallops and add them to the bowl along with the tomatoes and herbs. Drizzle with oil, season with salt and pepper and toss to coat.

GRILLED SEA SCALLOPS WITH CORN AND PEPPER SALSA
These summery grilled scallops are served with a kicky corn salsa, made bright green with puréed raw tomatillos, punched up with jalapeño and lime. Look for dry-packed or diver scallops, which means they are quite fresh (and haven't been dipped in a solution of sodium bisulphite, a commonly used preservative). Large scallops, about 2 ounces each, are ideal for grilling or pan-searing. Serve with small boiled potatoes.

Steps:
- Prepare a charcoal fire for grilling (or use a ridged stovetop grill pan).
- Make the salsa: Place the tomatillos and jalapeño in a blender or food processor and pulse to make a rough purée. Transfer to a bowl. Stir in corn, bell peppers, onion and lime juice. Add 1/2 teaspoon salt. Let salsa rest for a few minutes, then taste and adjust salt.
- Season sea scallops with salt and pepper on both sides and drizzle with olive oil. Rub with fingers to distribute and coat scallops with seasoning.
- When the grill is medium hot, set the scallops on it in a single layer. Leave for 3 minutes, until well browned. (It's O.K. to lift an edge to peek, but don't try to turn the scallops until they have colored well or they'll stick to the grill.) When they are nicely crisped and browned turn each scallop with tongs and cook for another 3 minutes, until cooked through.
- Transfer scallops to a serving platter and spoon some salsa over them. Garnish with lime wedges and cilantro sprigs. Pass the salsa at the table.

GRILLED PEACH AND CORN SALAD
You'll find peaches and corn next to each other at the farmers' market starting in mid-to-late summer, so why not put them together? We love the combo in this grilled warm-weather salad. (It's also great in muffins and scones.)

Steps:
- Prepare a grill for medium-high heat. Drizzle some olive oil on the corn and peaches and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Grill the corn and peaches, turning them periodically, until they develop dark grill and char marks on all sides, 6 to 8 minutes for the peaches and 10 to 12 minutes for the corn. Let cool slightly.
- Meanwhile, whisk together the olive oil, vinegar, mustard, Fresno pepper, shallot, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a large bowl.
- Cut the corn kernels from the cobs and discard the cobs. Slice the peach wedges crosswise so each piece has some grill marks. Add the corn kernels and sliced peaches to the large bowl of dressing along with the almonds and feta. Toss gently to coat. Check for seasoning and add more salt and pepper to taste.
- Arrange a bed of arugula on a large platter. Top with the peach and corn salad.
