Seared sea scallops over a fresh grapefruit-fennel salad with shallot vinaigrette.

Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
  • 16 large sea scallops
  • ½ medium red grapefruit
  • ½ bulb fennel
  • 3 cups baby spinach leaves
  • 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon diced shallot
  • 1 teaspoon brown mustard
  • 1 teaspoon honey
  • salt and ground black pepper to taste

Directions

  1. Heat butter and 1 tablespoon oil in a large saute pan over medium-high heat. Pat scallops dry and add to the hot pan; sear until caramelized, 6 to 7 minutes, flipping halfway.
  2. While scallops are cooking, peel, skin, and slice grapefruit. Slice fennel thinly, reserving a few fronds. Place grapefruit, fennel, fronds, and spinach in a large bowl.
  3. Prepare dressing by mixing remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil, vinegar, lemon juice, shallot, mustard, honey, salt, and pepper together in a small bowl.
  4. Add seared scallops to the salad and mix to combine. Drizzle dressing over top.

Skillet Potatoes with Smoked Fish and Smoked Paprika Aioli

I love smoked fish for breakfast, and one of my favorite ways to have it is mixed into a skillet of fried potatoes. I add dollops of smoked paprika aioli for a little extra smoke and tang. Since it's breakfast, I just mix up an easy aioli by adding garlic, lemon, and spice to mayonnaise, but you could absolutely make one from scratch if your arm is up for that kind of whisking early in the day.
