Steps:
- Put the scallops on a paper towel-lined plate and pat dry with more paper towels. Transfer to a medium bowl and add 1 tablespoon vegetable oil and 1 1/2 teaspoons coriander; season with salt and pepper. Toss well.
- Using a sharp paring knife, slice the skin off the oranges. Working over a bowl to catch the juice, slice between the membranes of the oranges and remove the segments. Transfer the orange segments to a large bowl.
- Make the dressing: Add 1 tablespoon of the orange juice to a small bowl along with the lime juice, fish sauce, remaining 1 teaspoon coriander, 2 tablespoons vegetable oil, and 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Whisk to combine and set aside. Add the cabbage, cilantro, red onion, jalapeño and peanuts to the large bowl with the oranges and set aside.
- Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the scallops in an even layer. Cook until golden brown on the bottom, about 3 minutes.
- Flip the scallops and cook until opaque, about 2 more minutes.
- Add the dressing to the cabbage-orange slaw and toss well to coat; season with salt and pepper. Divide the slaw among plates and top with the scallops.

KEY LIME SAUCE
My husband LOVES Key Lime Pie. After a recent trip to Florida, he got a hankering for some, so luckily I found Recipe #161578 Kelly's Rich & Creamy Key Lime Pie which is just delicious and easy to make. But DH wanted me to drizzle a key lime sauce over the pie. So here is a recipe I found that, if desired, goes great with Peacefulnightdove's recipe. This would also be good drizzled over bread pudding, among other things.

SEARED SEA SCALLOPS WITH GINGER-LIME BUTTER
Day-boat scallops, the kind that are dry-packed (never frozen or dosed with preservatives), are what you want for this decadent but very simple dish. The scallops are seared on cast iron, but gradually, for a crisp, well-browned surface that intensifies their natural sweetness. Ginger, lime and hot pepper enhance the rich meatiness of all fresh seafood, and here especially so. A roasted sweet potato and a pile of blanched bok choy complete this quintessentially elegant, fast-food meal.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 400 degrees. Wash sweet potatoes and wrap them tightly in foil. Roast until tender, 45 minutes to 1 hour. (If you are using larger sweet potatoes, they may require 15 minutes more in the oven.)
- Using a paring knife, remove the small hard "foot" from the edge of each scallop. Pat scallops dry and season on both sides with salt and pepper.
- Put on a medium pot of salted water to boil for the greens.
- Meanwhile, make the ginger butter: Combine butter, ginger, chile and lime zest and juice and stir together until well incorporated. Season with salt to taste. Set aside.
- Take a cast-iron skillet large enough to hold the scallops without crowding and place over medium-high heat. Add a film of olive oil. When the oil is nearly smoking, add the scallops in one layer and let them sizzle. Reduce heat to medium and continue to cook for at least 5 minutes. Use a small spatula to check the scallops as they brown, allowing them to color gradually. They should be quite crisp and well caramelized. Turn off heat and flip scallops. Leave in pan until firm to the touch.
- While the scallops are cooking, blanch the bok choy: Cook it for 1 minute in the salted boiling water, then drain and blot on a kitchen towel. Keep warm.
- Remove and place scallops, browned side up, onto warmed serving plates. Surround with the bok choy leaves and halved or sliced sweet potatoes.
- Quickly warm the butter in the cast-iron pan and spoon over everything. Sprinkle with cilantro if desired.

SEARED SCALLOPS, ORANGE RICE, AND CITRUS KEY LIME SAUCE
This is a very quick cooking dish with tons of flavor. Fresh sea scallops cook up so quick and I love to use some fragrant jasmine rice flavored with orange zest to compliment the flavors. Serve this sauteed snow peas or fresh roasted zucchini, something light and simple to compliment the light dish.

Steps:
- Scallops -- Now before you start anything, just take out the scallops from the fridge, rinse well and pat dry. Then season well with salt and pepper and set to the side so they get to room temperature You don't want to sear cold scallops.
- Rice -- Now even though it is quick cooking, the scallops take such little time we need to start the rice first. Now I happen to use the quick cooking, but you can use any Jasmine brand, quick cooking or not that you want. Just follow the directions for cooking the rice. But these are my changes. For the liquid, I use vegetable broth instead of water and I replace some of the broth with the juice of 1 orange, however much that will be depends on the size of the orange. Just make sure if it calls for 3 cups of liquid, use the orange juice and the rest should be the vegetable broth. This will just really help to flavor the rice as it cooks. I also add the zest of 1entire orange to the liquid as the rice cooks. Just cover and let cook as you sear the scallops.
- Scallops -- As the rice cooks, time to make the scallops. In a cast iron if you have one or a stainless pan (NO NON STICK) for this dish heat up 2 tablespoons of the the butter and 1 teaspoon olive oil to medium high heat and sear the scallops. Once you place them in the pan DO NOT move. They take about 2-3 minutes per side and when you can easily lift them, then it is time to turn. They don't take long and don't over cook. When they become opaque and firm to the touch they are done. They will also continue to cook once removed. They should be golden brown per side. Once done, remove to a plate and cover with foil.
- Rice -- Now the rice should be done. Add the scallions, butter, salt and pepper to taste if you want. Cover and set to the side. It is all done.
- Key Lime Sauce -- Now in the pan where you seared the scallops, add the garlic and saute just a minute. Then add the orange juice, key lime juice, honey, ginger, red pepper flakes and reduce on medium for 3-4 minutes to reduce. Then add in the cilantro, salt and pepper if needed and butter to glisten the sauce.
- Serve -- Serve the orange rice and top with 6 of the scallops per person and top with the key lime sauce. I love to garnish this with a lime and orange slice to let those know what is in the dish.
