The inventor37: grilled scallops with pear and fennel marmalade

New Recipes Inventor, a section where you put the ingredients and the inventor creates a recipe for you. In this case theese are the four ingredients: fish, pear, fennel and sugar. I know maybe is a cheat to use a mollusc and no fish. Because I have used scallops. But I think the texture of this moscull is similar to the fish. Finally, I served it with a marmalade of pear and fennel.




Ingredients
:
Scallops
1 pear
1/2 fennel
1/2 cup of sugar
A little of water
Olive oil
Chopped chive

For doing the marmalade, peel and cut the pear in pieces not so big. Do the same with the fennel. Cut the pear and fennel selecting the size you prefer to be after in the marmalade.

Add the fennel and pear cut in a pot. Put the sugar and a little of water. Boil it and keep it on to a down heat for 2 hours. After that, turn off the heat and repose it.

Put olive oil in a frying pan and brown the scallops for the both sides. Try to not cook it for a long time. The scallops has a tender meat and it's better to cook it for a short time.

Serve the scallops in a plate, put a little of olive oil, chive and the marmalade. This recipe is delicious with toast bread.
