If you love scallops, I’m certain you will love this dish! Every time I make it you will hear sounds like “Mmmmm!” “Oh, Wow!” “Yummm!” around my table, (me included).
Believe me, it isn’t any skill on my part, it’s very simple to make, it’s just that the flavors go so well together. You have the intense concentration of the tomatoes which have been roasted, balanced with the sweet and slightly smoky flavor of the grilled scallops, added with it all, are those thin french beans that still have a little bite to them, I’m telling you, it’s a match made in heaven!
The other great thing about this dish is the fact that the tomatoes and beans can be done ahead of time, even the day before. Scallops take no time at all, so I actually recommend you doing that, this way when the scallops are done, everything comes together so quickly.
Buon Appetito!!!
Your pictures made me ooohh, aaahhh, and mmmmmm I can’t wait to try this! Thanks! I’m glad I found your blog site! Just another foodie, Cathy
FFY, I think it would be equally as good, but I have to say I do love my grilled scallops! I will try shrimp next time.
I tried this recipe just last weekend. It was great 🙂 The French beans really gave a bite to the whole thing, and the tomatoes added the right amount of zing.
I think this will taste even greater if you substituted the scallops with shrimp. What do you think? 🙂
We would like to feature this recipe on our blog. Please email haleyglasco@gmail.com if interested. Thanks 🙂

Oh my gosh..these grilled scallops look so tantalizing!!
We love scallops here and this looks and sounds delicious. When are you going to produce a cook book Marie ??
Looks amazing, nice grill marks!
What a great way to enjoy scallops!
Ooh, this is a ‘must cook’ for me. Scallops are my all time favorite sea food, and the tomatoes sound delish!
I am closing my eyes now to envision this on my plate. It is only breakfast time so there is still a chance:D
Marie – you are funny! No worries, we don’t need the cooking times. And I promise not to overcook the scallops. Seriously, this recipe sounds perfect for me, very fresh flavors, great combination.

Um, can I just say wow….this is looking mighty good!
Looks really yummy and beautiful.
I adore those big, beautiful sea scallops! I really like your preparation too. It looks and sounds like a delicious combination.
I’ve never had scallops.
I wish I lived in your neck of the woods, I’d invite myself over so many times 🙂
What a great flavorful and healthy dinner.I love shellfish.
Sad to say, I don’t think I have ever had scallops. (You can take that as a hint!) Your pictures are beautiful.
So colorful and delish looking!!! I want scallops for dinner!
Those scallops look PERFECT. I am all about simplicity when it comes to eating these babies! They don’t need much, that’s for sure! Looks great!
Your photos beautifully capture the color and simplicity of this lovely dish, Marie. Bella!
What a perfect dish! I would imagine the richness of the scallops complements the lighter tomatoes and green beans. I’d love to try this!
This looks so fresh and summery. I love the variety of colors on the plate (heck, it even matches your blog perfectly!) and this is simplicity at its finest
I hope you dont mind be busting in uninvited on your blog, but this recipe looks scrumptious! I am going to have to try it!
Now Im hungry!!!

Beautiful dish and there is just something magical about roasting tomatoes.
Grilled scallops are another beautiful beautiful thing.
Nicely done and once again I am drooling over here.
Okay, I am drooling over this combo of colors and flavors. Another seafood lover here 🙂
There’s only one thing I like better than a fresh, uncomplicated recipe and that’s one you can prepare ahead (for the most part). It also looks scrumptious!
I have literally been from pillar to post looking for scallops here in South Africa, but no luck. The only ones I can find, are frozen and so small that it is not worth the effort.
This is so amazingly beautiful. I’m ooing and aahing and I’m not even at your table.
if this dish is served to me, you’ll definitely hear the sounds “Mmmmm!” “Oh, Wow!” “Yummm!” too… 🙂 thanks for sharing…
Yum Marie, those scallops looks so yummy! I’ve never attempted them but love to eat them! Great colorful pictures as usual!
The colors are gorgeous on this dish. It looks so healthy and inviting!
I can almost smell how good this is! I love scallops! Roasting really makes all the flavors pop.
mmmmmm…now I’m hungry!
Hugs, Pat
Wow, looking at those photos I can certainly understand the yummy noises everyone makes when eating it. Gosh, it’s such a beautiful dish. I love every single ingredient. Those beans and tomatoes look wonderful, and those scallops … perfections! YUM!
