- Thread the scallops onto 2 or possibly 3 thin metal skewers, leaving about 1/2 inch between each. Grill the scallops on an oiled rack over warm coals, 3 to 4 inches from the heat source, about 3 min per side. Remove to a plate.
- Place a small mound of Sesame Noodles in the center of each of 6 plates. Top each with equal amounts of carrots, scallions and cucumber. Surround each with 3 scallops and garnish with a cilantro sprig and a lime half.
- This recipe yields 6 servings.
- Comments: When grilling scallops, threading them on a skewer makes them easier to turn. Three min per side is plenty - do not overcook them!
