Miso-Glazed Scallops w/Wilted Kale (main dish)

by Irene Lindvall


The recipe had me at "miso-glazed". I will jump at the chance to make anything that has that in the title. The marinade tasted delicious and I liked that the dish utilized it all. My favorite part was cleaning the pan with the reserved marinade and getting up the little pieces of char that had stuck to the pan and then adding that to the scallops as a sauce. Quite tasty. The downside to the dish was the use of a frying pan plus a Dutch oven. I originally thought all of it was going to be cooked in the Dutch oven, but it turns out that it was just for the kale. Other than having more dishes to clean, I thought the dish was great.

Things I learned from this recipe:

I think where I went wrong with a previous scallop recipe was not having the heat turned up high enough and not having it on the correct burner. I have a "high output" burner that I used this timed and followed the directions of having it on medium-high heat and cooking them three minutes on each side - they came out perfect.

Would I make this recipe again?:

Sure
