Our Disclaimer (The serious stuff)

By using our free meal planner (and the rest of spoonacular.com) you have to agree that you and only you are responsible for anything that happens to you because of something you have read on this site or have bought/cooked/eaten because of this site. After all, the only person who controls what you put in your mouth is you, right?

Spoonacular is a recipe search engine that sources recipes from across the web. We do our best to find recipes suitable for many diets — whether vegetarian, vegan, gluten free, dairy free, etc. — but we cannot guarantee that a recipe's ingredients are safe for your diet. Always read ingredient lists from the original source (follow the link from the "Instructions" field) in case an ingredient has been incorrectly extracted from the original source or has been labeled incorrectly in any way. Moreover, it is important that you always read the labels on every product you buy to see if the product could cause an allergic reaction or if it conflicts with your personal or religious beliefs. If you are still not sure after reading the label, contact the manufacturer.

We also attempt to estimate the cost and calculate the nutritional information for the recipes found on our site. Again, we cannot guarantee the accuracy of this information. Additionally, our nutrition visualizer that suggests that you limit sodium, sugar, etc., and get enough protein, vitamins, and minerals is not intended as medical advice. Similarly, our health tips are based on articles we have read from various sources across the web, and are not based on any medical training. The team behind spoonacular does not possess any medical qualifications and the information may be found to be incorrect or out of date based on future research. If you need help planning your diet or determining which foods (and recipes) are safe for you, contact a registered dietitian, allergist, or another medical professional.

Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, and Chenin Blanc are my top picks for Bay Scallops. Chardonnay and chenin blanc are great matches for grilled or seared scallops. If your scallops are being matched with bacon or other cured meats, try a lightly chilled pinot noir. One wine you could try is Marcassin Marcassin Vineyard Pinot Noir. It has 4.9 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 315 dollars.

Instructions

  1. Dice bacon and add to hot pan, cooking until slightly crisp. Remove with a slotted spoon and reserve.
  2. Add peas and a sprinkle of salt to the pan and cook in the bacon fat until tender (about 8 minutes) adding garlic and orange zest in the last 2 minutes of cooking.
  3. Mix in cooked bacon, then remove mixture from pan and set aside, covered to keep warm.
  4. Add rendered pork fat/coconut oil to pan. Bring to medium high heat.
  5. Sprinkle scallops with salt, pepper, and paprika and add to hot pan, working in two batches if needed (dont overcrowd them in the pan).
  6. Cook for 1-2 minutes per side, being careful not to overcook scallops. They are done when they turn from translucent to milky white. Remove from pan and cover to keep warm.
  7. Add orange juice, balsalmic vinegar, salt, pepper, and chili powder to pan.
  8. Stir and reduce until you achieve a thick sauce (you can add a few chili flakes if you like it spicy).
  9. Drizzle over peas and scallops and dive in!
