SCALLOPS WITH SUN-DRIED TOMATOES
A half-hour is all you need for this delightful stir-fry from Jennifer Warzynak. The Erie, Pennsylvania cook combines scallops with broccoli, pasta and sun-dried tomatoes for the main course, and a hint of lime juice makes it a natural addition to summer menus. "It's a great, healthy way to fix scallops," she promises.

SEARED SCALLOPS WITH POLENTA AND AVOCADO CREAM
This seared scallops with polenta is a really impressive dish. It's beautiful but simple and a wonderful dinner party entree. If you can find them, peppadew peppers add a bit of zing, but if you can't, roasted red peppers will work just fine. Shrimp can also be substituted for the scallops, if you prefer. -Katie Pelczar, West Hartford, Connecticut

Steps:
- If the sun-dried tomatoes are moist, dry in a 200 degree oven for about 15 minutes, until dry.
- Grind the sun-dried tomatoes in a blender until they became a smooth powder; remove from the blender and set aside.
- Add the basil (reserve 2 sprigs for garnish), orange juice, and lemon juice to the blender. Blend on medium speed while drizzling 1/4 cup of the olive oil into the mixture.
- Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat; add 1 tablespoon olive oil and the garlic. Saute the garlic for 15 seconds (do not burn), then add the zucchini. Cook, stirring frequently, for 2 minutes or until the zucchini softens. Season with salt and pepper. Add the tomato, then take off the heat.
- Heat another nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Season the scallops with salt and pepper and all but 1 teaspoon of the reserved sun-dried tomato powder. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil to the pan and add the scallops slowly to prevent spattering.
- Cook for about 3 minutes, then flip to the other side. Let cook for another 2 minutes; transfer to a paper towel-lined plate.
- To serve, mound the zucchini mixture in the middle of two dinner plates. Place 5 scallops around each mound. Drizzle the vinaigrette around the dish. Garnish with basil sprig and a sprinkling of tomato powder.
