- Seafood Alternatives: shrimpIn a medium bowl whisk together the lime juice, honey, oil, cayenne pepper and salt. Add in the scallops and gently toss, coating well. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator at least 2 hrs or possibly overnight. Soak the bamboo skewers in a bowl of water for at least 1 hour to prevent them from burning on grill.
- Heat the barbecue grill till the coals glow red with white ash around the edge. Double-skewer the scallops using 3 to 4 per serving by threading on 2 parallel skewers about 1/2-inch apart.
- Put the scallop skewers on the warm grill and cook till nicely marked about 1 1/2 min. Turn and contine cooking till the scallops are just cooked and still very juicy, about 1 minute longer.
- Arrange on individual plates, dollop with Tropical Fruit Salsa and sprinkle with macadamia nuts, if using.
- This recipe yields 4 servings.
- Comments: Big sea scallops retain all their juicy goodness when quickly cooked on a warm grill. The zippy fruit salsa, with a hint of dry red pepper flakes, is an ideal partner for the sweetness of the scallops.
