CARIBBEAN GRILLED SCALLOP SALAD
Boston lettuce has a mild taste and tender texture. Rinse it gently, pat dry and refrigerate with moistened paper towels until ready to assemble salad. (Total time: 16 mins.)This is a very nice and pretty salad dish. Cooking Light Magazine, August/05. Making of the salad included in prep time -- not cooling time. Update 06/19/2008 - after making this again I tweaked it a bit; the first thing I did was used a rub that I used for another dish - recipe #283294 which added quite a kick! Also, I was remiss about including Emeril's Creole Seasoning recipe #146819 number. Also, used a vinaigrette that I had for another salad and added more of the mango chutney!!!:)

TERIYAKI SCALLOPS AND GREEN ONIONS
Steps:
- Preheat broiler. Blend teriyaki sauce and 1 teaspoon wasabi in medium bowl, adding more wasabi if desired. Transfer 3 tablespoons sauce mixture to small bowl and reserve. Mix scallops into sauce in medium bowl; let stand 10 minutes.
- Thread 6 scallops onto each of 2 skewers. Thread all onions onto remaining 2 skewers by pushing 1 skewer through bulbs of all onions and another skewer (parallel to first) through all onions 2 inches above bulbs.
- Place scallops and onions on broiler pan; brush with marinade. Broil until scallops are just opaque in center and onions are charred, turning occasionally and brushing with marinade, about 6 minutes total. Sprinkle with sesame seeds. Serve with reserved sauce mixture.
Tips:
- To ensure the best flavor, choose fresh, high-quality scallops. Look for scallops that are plump and firm, with a slightly briny smell.
- If you can't find fresh scallops, frozen scallops are a good option. Just be sure to thaw them completely before cooking.
- To prevent the scallops from sticking to the grill, brush them with oil or cooking spray before cooking.
- Cook the scallops over medium-high heat for 2-3 minutes per side, or until they are cooked through. Scallops are very delicate, so it's important not to overcook them.
- To make the teriyaki sauce, simply whisk together soy sauce, mirin, sake, and brown sugar in a small bowl. You can also add a little bit of garlic or ginger for extra flavor.
- To assemble the salad, simply toss the grilled scallops, mixed greens, cherry tomatoes, cucumber, and red onion in a large bowl. Drizzle with teriyaki sauce and sesame seeds, and serve immediately.
Conclusion:
Grilled scallop teriyaki salad is a light, healthy, and flavorful dish that's perfect for a summer meal. The scallops are grilled to perfection and the teriyaki sauce adds a delicious savory flavor. The salad is also packed with fresh vegetables, making it a nutritious and satisfying meal.
