Method

Sea Scallops

  1. 1

    Prepare the Scallops

    Pat the sea scallops dry with paper towels. Season both sides with salt and black pepper.

  2. 2

    Sear the Scallops

    In a skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, add the scallops. Sear for about 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through. Remove from heat and set aside.

Confit Tomatoes

  1. 3

    Prepare the Confit Tomatoes

    Preheat the oven to 200°F (90°C). In a baking dish, combine cherry tomatoes, crushed garlic, thyme, and salt. Pour olive oil over the tomatoes to cover them.

  2. 4

    Bake the Tomatoes

    Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and confit the tomatoes for about 2-3 hours until they are soft and bursting.

Corn and Jimmy Nordello Peppers

  1. 5

    Sauté the Corn and Peppers

    In a skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the corn kernels and sliced Jimmy Nordello peppers. Season with salt and black pepper. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes until the corn is tender and the peppers are soft.

Poblano Salsa

    Make the Poblano Salsa

    In a bowl, combine diced roasted poblano peppers, red onion, chopped cilantro, lime juice, and salt. Mix well and adjust seasoning to taste.
