Grilled Harvey Bay Scallops With Soy, Ginger & Shallot
Recipe By Louis Tikaram
Ingredients
2 tbsp Squeaky Gate extra virgin olive oil
6 half shell Hervey Bay scallops, in shell
4 green shallots, finely sliced
1 knob ginger, finely sliced
½ bunch of picked coriander leaves
Soy Dressing
10 ml rice wine vinegar
150 g Coles Asia light soy sauce
20 g sugar
100 ml water
Method
In a small saucepan, heat the soy dressing ingredients till just warm and set aside.
Gently oil the scallops inside the half shell and set aside ready to cook, heat the soy dressing ready to dress the scallops.
Heat a barbecue to a medium consistent heat or you can use a grill pan as the shell acts as the heating element for the delicate scallop meat inside.
Grill just for around 1 - 2 minutes till the oil starts to splatter and spit from the heat and the scallop starts to turn opaque, quickly take the scallop off the grill. Flip the scallop to continue to cook on the other side and arrange on a serving plate.
Scatter the green shallots, ginger and coriander over the scallops and then dress generously with some of the warm soy dressing and serve immediately.
