The transformative power of our new favorite seedy, spicy, crunchy, garlicky oil is on full display in this dinner of simply seared scallops. A couple of drizzles adds a spice drawer’s worth of flavor in seconds.
Ingredients
4 servings
Step 1
Pat scallops dry, then season on all sides with ½ tsp. salt.
Step 2
Heat ginger and 1 Tbsp. oil in a large high-sided skillet or medium Dutch oven over medium until oil is hot. Add kale and ¼ cup water and toss to coat. Cook until kale is wilted and water is evaporated, 5–7 minutes. Season with remaining ½ tsp. salt.
Step 3
Meanwhile, heat remaining 2 Tbsp oil in large nonstick or cast-iron skillet over medium-high until shimmering. Cook scallops until golden brown and firm to the touch, about 3 minutes per side.
Step 4
Divide scallops among shallow bowls or plates; arrange kale, avocado, and some rice next to scallops. Drizzle with spice oil and serve with lemons for squeezing over.

Back to Topit's really delicious though a bit hot with the spicy oil specially in Spain in Summer. Real tasty and yummy

This was pretty bland. The sauce was ok but I think it relied too much on an oily sauce for flavor

Yes - this was wonderful! I'd encourage some creativity with the crunchy oil. I used olive oil with about 15% sesame oil. I ran out of caraway seeds, and substituted celery seed + fennel seed. And crushed red pepper. It was still terrific.

I made this as part of Covid culinary adventures 2020 and it was so good and easy. I did some modifications based on what we had - swapped shrimp for the scallops and spinach for the kale. Then I ended up mixing the ginger spinach into the rice, otherwise my toddlers wouldn't have eaten the greens on their own. Also put less chili flakes to make it less spicy for the kiddos. All in all a hit! I'll be using the leftover crunchy spice oil over fish next.

Wow! An impressive dish with lots of flavor! Definitely one for the archives or special occasion dinners (because of the cost) of the scallops. Will make again! Next time I will only make half recipe of the oil to serve four people.
