SEARED SEA SCALLOPS WITH SPICY CARROT COULIS
A coulis, pronounced koo-LEE, is a thin, pourable sauce, often made from tomatoes for savory dishes, or from berries for desserts. This brilliant orange sauce gets a splash of vinegar for a hit of acidity and a pinch of cayenne for heat, a perfect foil for the scallops' sweetness. For the best flavor, use young bunch carrots, not large "horse carrots." This is a very easy dish if the sauce is prepared in advance. (Make the sauce up to a day ahead. If made in advance, reheat to serve.) Then it's just a matter of searing the scallops and assembling the plates.

Steps:
- Make the coulis: Put carrots, garlic, onion, vinegar, cayenne, salt, honey and broth in a saucepan over high heat. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Cook until carrots are very soft, about 15 minutes. Purée all ingredients thoroughly in a blender and strain if necessary - it should be very smooth. Taste, and adjust seasoning. Coulis should not be too thick, but rather similar to a thin milkshake. Keep warm if not made ahead.
- Prepare the scallops: Set 2 wide cast-iron skillets or a large griddle over medium-high heat. When pan is hot, film with olive oil. As oil heats and just before cooking, season scallops with salt and pepper on both sides. When oil is wavy, place scallops in pan without crowding. Leave scallops undisturbed to brown well and crisp on one side, about 4 to 5 minutes. Flip and cook for 1 to 2 minutes more, until cooked through, but juicy. Place scallops browned side up on paper towels to blot bottoms.
- To serve, ladle about 1/4 cup warm coulis onto individual warmed dinner plates. Set scallops on top, browned side up. Sprinkle with cilantro, chives and sliced chiles. Serve with lime wedges.

Steps:
- Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat and add the peanut oil.
- In a bowl, mix together the soy sauce, vinegar, brown sugar, cornstarch, ginger and sriracha. Set aside.

- Crank up the heat to high. Add the baby corn, squash and broccoli and cook, stirring everything around, for 2 minutes. Then add the snow peas and chile pepper and continue to cook for about 1 minute.
- Give the reserved sauce a quick stir and add it to the skillet along with 1/2 cup water. Continue to cook until the sauce thickens, about a minute or two. Add the scallops back to the skillet and gently stir to coat them in the sauce.
- Serve immediately over rice and garnish with the scallions and cilantro.

Steps:
- Pat scallops dry, then season on all sides with ½ tsp. salt.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
