Sesame Crusted Scallops Recipe

Cooking Instructions

1. 1

   Prepare the Scallops

   Rinse the scallops under cold water and pat them dry with a paper towel. Season with salt and black pepper.

2. 2

   Crust the Scallops

   Place sesame seeds in a shallow dish. Press each scallop into the sesame seeds to coat one side thoroughly.

3. 3

   Cook the Scallops

   In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. When the oil is hot, add the scallops, sesame side down. Cook for about 2-3 minutes until golden brown, then flip and cook for another 2 minutes. Remove from heat.

   Prepare the Salad

   While the scallops are cooking, segment the grapefruit and chop the avocado and fennel. Combine them in a bowl, and add a drizzle of olive oil, salt, and pepper to taste.

5. 5

   Serve

   Arrange the salad on plates and place the sesame-crusted scallops on top. Serve immediately.
