Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Slaw

    In a bowl, combine shredded cabbage with lime juice, salt, and pepper. Toss to combine and let it sit while you prepare the rest of the dish.

  2. 2

    Sear the Scallops

    Pat the scallops dry and season them with blackening seasoning. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the scallops to the skillet and sear for about 2-3 minutes per side until they are golden brown and cooked through. Remove from heat.

  3. 3

    Grill the Broccolini

    In the same skillet, add the broccolini and grill for about 4-5 minutes until tender and slightly charred. Season with salt and pepper.

  4. 4

    Plate the Dish

    On a plate, add a bed of grilled broccolini, top with the blackened scallops, and drizzle with Veracruz sauce. Serve with a side of cabbage slaw and lime wedges.
