Steps:
- Char peppers over the flame of a gas stove, turning with tongs, until blackened and blistering, about 10 minutes. (Or char under the broiler.) Transfer to a bowl, cover with a plate, and let cool completely. Scrape off skins with a paring knife or paper towel.
- Remove stems, ribs, and seeds, then finely dice peppers and transfer to another bowl. Add almonds, garlic, paprika, vinegar, and oil; season with salt. Relish can be refrigerated in an airtight container up to 5 days.
- Cook couscous in boiling salted water according to package instructions. Drain; drizzle with oil. Transfer to a platter.
- Heat grill to medium. Thread scallops on metal skewers; drizzle with oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill, turning, until scallops are lightly charred and just cooked through, about 2 minutes a side. Transfer skewers to couscous. Drizzle with some relish; sprinkle with scallions and cilantro. Serve, with more relish alongside.

GRILLED SCALLOPS WITH RED PEPPER SAUCE
Entered for safe-keeping. From Simply Classic by Jr League of Seattle. Elegant. Northwest U.S. cuisine. May use either fresh red bell peppers, roasted, or canned roasted red peppers. Note: reviews recommended use of reduced sodium chicken broth in lieu of regular chicken stock as the sauce seemed too salty. Likewise, I would also use unsalted butter. I normally substitute the reduced sodium ingredients while cooking anyway out of force of habit.

Steps:
- Preheat your gas or charcoal grill to a hot to medium hot level. You want your fire to be just under the hot level but not to the medium hot level yet.
- Meanwhile, allow your scallops to come to room temp while your prepare the vinaigrette.
- Combine the vinegar, honey, mustard, and oil in a bowl and whisk together with a fork. If it does not whisk together well just pop it into the microwave for about 30 seconds. Warming makes the honey mix more easily with the other ingredients.
- Pour half the vinaigrette into a small serving bowl. Set aside. Toss the scallops with the remaining vinaigrette, remove them from the bowl, and season with salt, pepper, and thyme.
- The grilling has to be done very quickly. Grill the scallops for a minute or two on one side then throw the black peppercorns onto the hottest part of the fire. (This really only works on a charcoal fire. You could try putting the peppercorns in foil with the top open and place the packet on the hottest part of the grill. Put the packet on as soon as you start your gas grill) Allow the scallops to cook for about 2 or 3 minutes more.
- Turn the scallops and allow them to cook for about 4 to 5 minutes on this side, then remove them and serve immediately using the remaining vinaigrette as a salad dressing for the greens.
- NOTE: You could do the same with shrimp or half shrimp and half scallops. Please adjust your time with the size of your seafood.
- One MORE NOTE: Please allow your ingredients to warm up to room temp before placing on the grill for more accurate cooking times. Thanks!

Steps:
- Set up your grill for high heat by building coals evenly on the bottom of the grill.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the lemon zest and juice, garlic, chopped oregano and 1/2 cup olive oil. Season with salt and pepper, then add the scallops, tossing to coat. Allow to marinate for 10 to 30 minutes.
- Remove the scallops from the marinade, letting the excess drip off. Reserve the marinade for basting. Place the scallops on the grill and cook until charred, 3 to 4 minutes. Flip, and using the oregano brush, baste with the leftover marinade. Char on the other side, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove from the grill and serve.
