Gently stir and press down lightly on the scallop mixture, making sure the seafood is submerged. Transfer to the refrigerator for 2 ½ to 3 hours or until the scallops turn opaque.
• About 5 minutes before serving, in another bowl combine diced pineapple, white onion, red pepper, salt and black pepper; stir.

SEARED SCALLOPS WITH PINEAPPLE

Steps:

• Season scallops with salt, pepper and chili flakes.
• In a hot pan (I prefer cast iron) add oil. When the oil starts to smoke add scallops and watch closely to make sure its not too hot.
• Sear the scallops until golden brown on both sides, but only flip once.
• Remove and set aside on a plate.
• Next add the chopped garlic and cook for just a minute or two, then add the wine.
• The garlic and wine should start to simmer, continue this until its reduced.
• Then add the pineapple and stir around to coat.
• Pour it all over the scallops and garnish. Serve immediately.
• For the wine I prefer to use Alice White Lexia, its smooth and has more of a fruity flavor.
