Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Baby Potatoes

    In a pot of salted boiling water, add the halved baby potatoes and cook until fork-tender, about 10-12 minutes. Drain and set aside.

  2. 2

    Cook the Chorizo and Shrimp

    In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add the chorizo slices and cook until crispy, about 3-4 minutes. Add the shrimp and cook until pink and opaque, about 2-3 minutes. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

  3. 3

    Sear the Scallops

    In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil and increase the heat to high. Season the scallops with salt and black pepper. Sear the scallops for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown. Do not overcrowd the pan; cook in batches if necessary.

  4. 4

    Prepare the Bell Pepper Coulis

    In a blender, combine the roasted bell pepper, uni, and a pinch of salt. Blend until smooth. Adjust seasoning to taste.

  5. 5

    Assemble the Dish

    On each plate, create a bed of baby potatoes, top with the shrimp and chorizo mixture. Arrange the seared scallops on top and drizzle with the bell pepper coulis. Garnish with thinly sliced radish, parsley, and cilantro.
