Grilled Sea Scallops with Mediterranean Grilled Vegetables and Greek Vinaigrette
Ingredients
1 tablespoon fresh thyme, finely chopped
1 tablespoon fresh oregano, finely chopped
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon pepper
3 to 4 pounds of vegetables of your choice, sliced into uniform pieces.
3 pounds fresh dry pack sea scallops
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon herbed sea salt (available at Dirk's)
2/3 cup extra virgin olive oil
1/3 cup fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons oregano, finely chopped
1 tablespoon thyme, finely chopped
1 tablespoon fresh garlic, finely chopped
2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 pound feta cheese, crumbled
Directions
Mix first 5 ingredients and toss with the vegetables. Coat well and set aside.
Coat the scallops with olive oil, dust with salt and set aside at room temperature.
For the dressing, add all ingredients except for feta cheese and shake well.
We use a perforated stainless steel pan with a lid for the vegetables. Fill pan loosely with vegetables and cook on the grill indirectly, until tender, turning occasionally.
When vegetables are almost ready, cook scallops about 2 1/2 minutes per side over hot fire.
Place finished vegetables on serving platter and scatter with cheese. Top with scallops and finish with dressing.
Serves 6 to 8 people. Enjoy!
