cumin grilled sea scallops with chickpea salad and red pepper-tahini vinaigrette
My 2009 fish dish of the year was sesame-orange shrimp and Im formally nominating the cumin grilled sea scallops with chickpea salad and red pepper-tahini vinaigrette I made last night for my 2010 dish of the year.Buttering me up right off the bat was the inclusion of saffron in the vinaigrette.Im picky where I use my favorite (very costly) spice, and this was absolutely a worthy cause. Second, I adored the kick the serranos gave the chickpeas.It might have been a bit too much heat for the average person, but it was perfect for us.Lastly, this dish was quick.I started making it at 9pm, so that was really appreciated.
