Ingredients

  • 1 pound large sea scallops
  • Kosher salt
  • Pepper
  • 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for oiling the grates
  • 1/4 cup chopped cilantro
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced

  • 1 1/2 teaspoons low-sodium soy sauce
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons crushed red pepper
  • Tortilla chips, chopped avocado and lime wedges, for serving

Steps

  1. Light a grill. In a medium bowl, season the scallops with salt and pepper. Add the olive oil and cilantro along with the garlic, lime juice, soy sauce, and crushed red pepper; toss to coat. Oil the grates and grill the scallops over moderate heat, basting with the marinade, until golden and just cooked through, 2 minutes per side. Serve the scallops with lime wedges, chopped avocado, and tortilla chips.
