Ingredients for 4 servings

A top-notch cooking method to highlight their slightly sweet taste.
Prepare 12 beautiful shelled scallops.
Use olive oil mixed with a bit of dried lemon zest powder.
Add salt (Guérande) and a touch of crushed peppercorns.

Step-by-step directions

1 Ignite your plancha.

2 Place your scallops in a dish, pour the olive oil mixture over them, and add a bit of fine salt. If some have corals, don't forget, before any accidents, to puncture them with the tip of a knife.

3 Cook the scallops on the hot plancha. Do this quickly, 1 minute on each side, then sprinkle a few grains of fleur de sel and crushed peppercorns on top.

4 For me, the best accompaniment for these scallops is a mashed potato dish made with olive oil and flavored with a hint of mild garlic.
