Preparation
- Step 1
In a food processor or blender, combine the ginger, garlic, ½ teaspoon salt, ¼ cup olive oil and 1 tablespoon lemon juice. Pulse just enough to make a mostly smooth but not liquefied purée. Adjust salt, oil and lemon juice to taste. (Alternatively, the ginger, garlic and salt may be mashed together with the side of a knife or using a mortar and pestle, then mixed with the oil and lemon juice.)
- Step 2
Using a sharp knife, slice the scallops as thinly as possible into disks. Combine the sliced scallops and ginger mixture in a bowl, and allow to rest at room temperature for 15 minutes, or refrigerate for up to 2 hours. The scallops may be served chilled, or, for more intense flavor, at room temperature.
- Step 3
To serve, on 4 individual plates or on a platter, arrange scallops in a single layer, slightly overlapping them. Sprinkle with pepper and garnish with parsley.
