Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Corn Emulsion

    In a blender, combine the corn kernels, olive oil, lime juice, salt, and black pepper. Blend until smooth. If the mixture is too thick, add a little water to reach your desired consistency. Strain the emulsion through a fine mesh sieve to remove any solids.

  2. 2

    Cook the Scallops

    Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add a tablespoon of olive oil. Season the scallops with salt and pepper. Once the oil is hot, add the scallops and sear for about 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Corn Elote Salad

    In a bowl, combine the remaining corn kernels, crumbled feta cheese, and chopped cilantro. Drizzle with lime juice and mix well. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

  4. 4

    Serve

    On a plate, drizzle the corn emulsion. Place the seared scallops on top and spoon the corn elote salad alongside. Garnish with additional cilantro if desired.
