Steps:
- Remove the scallops from the refrigerator, arrange on a plate in a single layer and blot them gently with a paper towel. Set aside.
- Prepare the seasoning blend by combining the paprika, 1/2 teaspoon salt, a few grinds of black pepper and onion powder in a small bowl. Spread the mixture on a flat plate and set aside.
- Drain the roasted red peppers thoroughly and add them to the work bowl of a food processor along with the olive oil and sherry vinegar. Pulse until smooth, then season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Transfer the sauce to a serving dish and set aside.
- Working with one scallop at a time, lightly press the flat sides of each into the spice mixture and transfer to a dry plate.
- Add the butter to a frying pan large enough to hold the scallops in a single layer with some room between them, and place on the stove over medium-high heat.
- As soon as the butter begins to sizzle, swirl it to coat the pan and using tongs, add the scallops to the pan one at a time.
- Cook for 1-1/2 minutes, then start turning them and cook for an additional 1-1/2 to 2 minutes on the second side. Do not overcook.
- To serve, plate four servings of rice, spoon some sauce around it on the plate, top with scallops and garnish with parsley if desired.

Steps:
- To prepare the roasted red pepper sauce, place all of the ingredients into the bowl of a food processor, and process for a few minutes until completely smooth; pour the sauce into a squeeze bottle or spoon into a serving dish, and keep room temp or in the fridge. (Any unused portion will last for a couple of weeks in the fridge, and is delicious over chicken, beef, shrimp, or veggies.)
- To sear the scallops, place a large cast-iron or other heavy bottom skillet over medium-high heat, and add in the avocado oil and the clarified (or regular) butter; once melted and the skillet it very hot and pretty much smoking, season the scallops with some sea salt, and working in batches if necessary, place the scallops larger flat-side down into the skillet.
- Do not disturb the scallops for about 2 1/2 minutes, allowing that first side to get a nice, deep brown char; then, flip the scallops over and allow them to sear, undisturbed, on that second side for about 1 1/2 minutes, or until a golden crust forms on that side and the scallops are medium-rare and slightly firm yet tender when gently pressed.
- Remove the scallops from the skillet and place onto a large platter to hold. Repeat with another batch, if necessary.
- To serve, add a couple of generous spoonfuls of the roasted red pepper sauce to the bottom of a plate, and top with 3 scallops; sprinkle over a small amount of the toasted pine nuts as well as some pretty micro greens, and serve while hot. (Alternately, you can spoon or drizzle some of the sauce over top of the scallops, then top with pine nuts and micro greens.)

Steps:
- Cut the scallops crosswise if they are more than 1 1/4 inches across.
- Place the scallops in a mixing bowl and add the milk, salt and pepper. Set aside. Place the flour in a flat dish and set it aside.
- Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the red pepper, tomatoes, salt and pepper. Cook and stir until wilted. This should take a few minutes.
- Drain the scallops and dredge them in the flour. Shake off the excess.
- Meanwhile, heat the remaining oil over high heat in a nonstick skillet large enough to hold the scallops in one layer. If the skillet cannot accommodate all the scallops, cook them in two batches. Add the scallops and cook, stirring, until golden brown. Do not overcook.
- Add the shallots, garlic and lemon juice, shaking the pan. Cook about 30 seconds. Add the pepper and tomato mixture and stir and toss well for about 2 minutes. Add the parsley and serve immediately with rice Creole (see recipe).

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
