• Heat a large cast-iron pan over high heat until it begins to smoke. Brush the scallops on both sides with the oil and season with salt. Dredge one side of each scallop in the spice rub and put the scallops in the pan spice side down. Cook until browned and a crust has formed, 1 1/2 to 2 minutes. Turn the scallops over and continue to cook until just cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes longer.
• Divide the scallops among 4 large dinner plates, top each scallop with some of the tomato relish, drizzle with the vinaigrette, and sprinkle some green onion on top.
