Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Preheat oven to 400 degrees and preheat grill to hot. Wipe the scallops dry with paper towels and brush them with a tablespoon of olive oil. Grill over very high heat just enough to make crosshatch marks on both sides. Do not cook any longer.

  2. Step 2

    Heat a tablespoon olive oil in a saucepan. Add the tomato and onion and saute for five minutes. Add the garlic and wine and cook two minutes more. Stir in the capers, olives, thyme, half a teaspoon of rosemary, the remaining three tablespoons of olive oil and salt and pepper.

  3. Step 3

    Pour mixture into a baking dish and arrange scallops on top. Bake for five minutes. Remove from oven and cool. Sprinkle with the extra-virgin olive oil and remaining rosemary and serve at room temperature.
