GRILLED SCALLOPS WITH CORIANDER BUTTER SAUCE

Steps:

• In a small heavy saucepan simmer the onion, the vinegar, the water, and the ground coriander until the liquid is reduced to about 1 tablespoon and whisk in the butter, 1 piece at a time, lifting the pan from the heat occasionally to let the mixture cool adding each new piece of butter before the previous one has melted completely. (The sauce should not get hot enough to liquefy. It should be the consistency of thin hollandaise.) Season the sauce with salt and pepper, transfer it to a bowl set in a larger bowl of warm water, and keep it warm.
• Brush the scallops with the oil, heat a ridged grill pan over high heat until it is hot and just begins to smoke, and in it grill the scallops, for 5 minutes on each side, or until they are cooked through. Whisk the fresh coriander into the butter sauce, spoon the sauce onto 2 plates, and arrange the scallops on it.

GRILLED STEAK WITH SCALLION AND CILANTRO SAUCE RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Heat the grill to medium-high and lightly grease the grates.
• Rub the steaks all over with 1½ teaspoons of salt and 1 teaspoon of black pepper.
• Make the cilantro sauce: Add the cilantro, parsley, scallions, garlic, and jalapeño to a food processor and pulse until the herbs are coarsely chopped. Add the remaining ½ teaspoon salt, remaining ¼ teaspoon pepper, the red pepper flakes, ¼ cup olive oil, the red wine vinegar, and lime juice and puree on high speed for 20-30 seconds, until the herbs are evenly chopped. Transfer the sauce to a medium bowl and stir in the remaining ¼ cup olive oil. Season with more salt to taste.
• Place the steaks on the preheated grill and cook, uncovered, for 4½-5 minutes per side for medium, or until the steaks are cooked to your liking/depending on the thickness of the steaks. Let the steaks rest for 5-7 minutes, then slice against the grain.
• Fan the steak slices on a serving platter and spoon the cilantro scallion sauce on top.
• Enjoy!

GRILLED CILANTRO-LIME SCALLOPS WITH ZUCCHINI AND COUSCOUS

Steps:

• Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium-high.
• Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the onions, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of black pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are softened, 6 to 7 minutes. Add the couscous and cook, stirring a few times, until starting to turn golden brown, about 3 minutes. Add the red bell pepper and broth and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer, covered, until the couscous is softened, and the liquid has been absorbed, 12 to 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, combine the cilantro, lime juice, garlic, Aleppo pepper, 1 teaspoon salt, a few grinds of black pepper and the remaining 2/3 cup olive oil to a food processor and process until smooth and vibrant green. Reserve 1/3 cup and pour the rest into a large bowl.
• Add the zucchini and the yellow squash to the bowl and toss to coat with the sauce. Thread 7 to 8 pieces, alternating between zucchini and yellow squash, onto each of 4 skewers, threading them so the slices will lay flat on the grill. Season with 1/4 teaspoon salt. Add the scallops to the bowl and toss with the marinade. Set aside while you grill the vegetables.
• Grill the vegetables until grill marks appear on the underside and the vegetables begin to soften, 6 to 7 minutes. Flip and grill until the vegetables are cooked through, 6 to 7 minutes longer.
• Meanwhile, thread 4 scallops each onto 4 skewers so that the scallops lay flat. Season with 1/4 teaspoon salt. Grill until caramelized on one side, about 3 minutes. Flip and cook until the scallops are just firm to touch and opaque in the center, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Stir 3 tablespoons of the reserved cilantro-lime sauce into the couscous and spoon the couscous onto a platter. Place the vegetable and scallop skewers on top and garnish with lime zest and Aleppo pepper. Serve with the remaining cilantro-lime sauce on the side.
