Miso-Glazed Scallops with Soba Noodles

This Japanese-inspired dish uses one sauce--a sweet/salt combination of mirin and miso--to make both the marinade for the scallops and the caramelized pan sauce for the noodles. A good pairing would be a simple green salad dressed with a citrus vinaigrette.

Chile-Crusted Scallops with Cucumber Salad

A refreshing salad of cucumbers and roasted cashews makes a nice contrast to these smoky scallops. You can make the salad and scallop skewers up to 8 hours in advance; cover separately and store in the refrigerator until you're ready to grill.

Scallop & Shrimp Dumplings

People along the Yangtze River enjoy dumplings with a variety of fillings, from seafood to red meat, eggs to vegetables. In Wuhan, dumplings may be served at any meal. Crisp, pan-fried dumplings don't have to be loaded with fat. Cooking them in a mix of water and oil makes them crisp on the bottom, tender and juicy inside.

Scallop Mango Ceviche

Ceviche is traditionally made by “cooking” a seafood in a citrus-based marinade. In this version, we use scallops and cook them lightly before marinating them in a tangy mango, lime, chile pepper and onion marinade. Try serving this ceviche Peruvian-style, with hard-boiled egg, sweet potato, lettuce and corn. Or keep it simple and serve it on salad greens with tortilla chips on the side.

Sweet and succulent scallops recipes.

Scallops are a sweet, succulent and meaty shellfish that pair perfectly with citrus and spices. Often, though, they are drenched in butter or deep-fried, preparations that mask the shellfish’s delicate flavor. Our healthy scallop recipes are tasty alternatives. Try Chile-Crusted Scallops with Cucumber Salad─smoky scallops served with toasted cashews and refreshing cucumbers. Or enjoy our Prosciutto-Wrapped Scallops with Spinach, a sophisticated and healthy twist on bacon-wrapped scallops that your dinner guests will love.
