GRILLED SCALLOPS

Steps:

• Combine the lemon juice, orange juice, honey, garlic and olive oil into a bowl and stir.
• Pour the marinade into a Ziploc bag and add the scallops.
• Make sure the scallops are fully coated and let it marinate in the refrigerator for about one hour.
• Heat the grill to 375 degrees and use direct heat. Because this dish will grill so quickly, make sure the grill is fully up to temperature before adding any of the skewers.
• Remove the scallops from the marinade and add four to five scallops on a flat metal skewer, leaving a little space in between to make sure there is air flow. Sprinkle a little salt and pepper.
• Brush the grill with a little olive oil so the scallops don't burn and will release easily.
• Lay the skewered scallops on the grill and cook each side for about 2-3 minutes. Don't overcook the scallops. You won't need more than a total of six to seven minutes. Look for the meat to turn an opaque white.
• Remove and serve!

Thread the scallops on four metal skewers, placing them so that the flat surfaces are exposed. Grill, turning once, until the scallops are lightly browned and no longer translucent, about 2 to 3 minutes per side. Sprinkle with sesame seeds, garnish with lime wedges, and serve.

ROSEMARY-GRILLED SCALLOPS

Steps:

• Pull off and discard crescent-shaped muscle on side of each scallop that has one. Strip leaves off bottom 2 inches of rosemary sprigs (slide them off with your thumb and forefinger). Reserve leaves, and set sprigs aside. Cut prosciutto into strips just large enough to wrap around scallops (about 1 by 3 inches).
• Lay a scallop flat on a work surface. Wrap a piece of prosciutto around it. Skewer a rosemary sprig through prosciutto and scallop to other side. Repeat with remaining scallops. Arrange scallops in a baking dish. Drizzle olive oil and lemon juice on both sides, sprinkle with rosemary leaves and season with salt and pepper. (Go easy on salt, as prosciutto is fairly salty.) Marinate for 15 minutes, while you light grill.
• Set up grill for direct grilling, and preheat to high. Brush and oil grate. Arrange scallops on grate, and grill until just cooked, about 2 minutes a side. Serve at once.
