Recipe
Lightly roast jalapeno pepper in a small saute pan, just till the skin starts to blister. Then place in blender with the cilantro, sour cream, and lemon juice. Add a little bit of water to help blend into a smooth paste.
Pan Seared Scallops and Plate Set-Up
3 scallops per person
1 tsp. oil
salt and pepper
Season scallops with salt and pepper. Heat oil in pan, just enough to coat pan. Pat scallops dry with paper towel. Place scallops in pan. Sear till golden brown. Turn over, cover, and lower heat. Place a small mound of slaw in the middle of the plate. Check scallops (scallops should feel firm to the touch). Place scallops around slaw. Then drizzle the Cilantro Jalapeno Drizzle over the entire dish.
