GRILLED SCALLOPS WITH PEACHES, CORN AND TOMATOES
The easiest hot-weather supper, this salad benefits from peak-summer ingredients, which need very little prep. You can throw the corn cobs and halved peaches directly on the grill, but if your scallops are small enough to fall through the grates, you should skewer them onto metal skewers or wooden skewers that have been soaked in water. The only thing worse than losing a sweet, meaty scallop into the fire would be overcooking it, so be sure to remove the scallops from the grill before they're fully opaque.

Steps:

Steps:
- Season scallops with salt, pepper and chili flakes.
- In a hot pan (I prefer cast iron) add oil. When the oil starts to smoke add scallops and watch closely to make sure its not too hot.
- Sear the scallops until golden brown on both sides, but only flip once.
- Remove and set aside on a plate.
- Next add the chopped garlic and cook for just a minute or two, then add the wine.
- The garlic and wine should start to simmer, continue this until its reduced.
- Then add the pineapple and stir around to coat.
- Pour it all over the scallops and garnish. Serve immediately.
- For the wine I prefer to use Alice White Lexia, its smooth and has more of a fruity flavor.

Tips:
- Choose fresh, high-quality scallops. Look for scallops that are plump and have a briny smell. Avoid scallops that are slimy or have a strong fishy odor.
- Sear the scallops over high heat. This will help to create a nice crust and prevent the scallops from becoming rubbery.
- Do not overcook the scallops. Scallops are best when they are cooked just until they are opaque in the center.

- Serve the scallops with the pineapple-mango-papaya relish immediately. This dish is best enjoyed fresh.
