1 1/2 lb Sea scallops
2 tb Olive oil
Zest of
1 Lemon
Freshly ground black pepper
4 lg Red bell peppers
In a bowl, combine scallops, olive oil, lemon zest and
ground pepper to taste. Preheat broiler (or start
fire in grill). Cut pepper in half lengthwise and
remove stems, seeds and ribs. Place cut side down on a
baking sheet. Broil (or grill) until blackened, 6 to
10 minutes. Transfer to a paper bag, close tightly and
let cool for 10 minutes. Remove skins and cut peppers
lengthwise into 3/4"-wide strips. If you have not
already done so, prepare a fire in a charcoal grill.
Wrap a pepper strip around a scallop to cover
completely, overlapping the pepper ends. Secure the
strip in place by running a skewer through the scallop
and pepper. Repeat with the remaining pepper strips
and scallops, dividing the wrapped scallops evenly
among the skewers. Grill skewers over a medium-hot
fire, turning once, until scallops are almost firm to
the touch, 1 to 2 minutes on each side. Alternately,
cook under broiler about 3 minutes per side. Serve
immediately. MM Norma Wrenn
