Preparation of the Sauce

    Make the Paprika Sauce

    In a bowl, mix together the smoked paprika, olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper until well combined. Set aside.

Cooking the Seafood

    Sear the Gambas and Scallops

    Preheat the plancha or a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add a tablespoon of olive oil to the pan. Once hot, add the gambas and scallops in a single layer. Cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side, until they are golden brown and cooked through.

  2. 3

    Add the Sauce

    Once the seafood is cooked, reduce the heat and pour the prepared paprika sauce over the gambas and scallops. Toss gently to coat everything in the sauce and heat through for another minute.
