The Absolute Best Side Dishes To Serve With Scallops
BY TOMMY DOTT
Spinach
Steamed spinach is a great contrast to rich and sweet scallops. Spinach is also an excellent foundation and sauce catcher for scallops, so you won’t miss out on any flavor.
Mashed Potatoes
Also great for sauce-catching, mashed potatoes allow the sweet scallops and your sauce to sing as they take a backseat to the scallops in the texture department.
Pomegranate Salad
Pomegranate spinach salad adds a bit of sparkle and pop to the silky scallop texture. Pomegranate and scallops offer contrasting sensations to enjoy.
Beef Tenderloin
A juicy tenderloin with garlic butter sauce makes for a perfect pairing with bay scallops, which offer a diminutive dimension to complement the meat.
Scallop Ceviche
Scallops are excellent when made into ceviche. Throw in some fresh citrus fruits with a drizzle of honey, a squirt of lime, and some coconut flakes.
