Instructions
Wash produce before use
1
Make the radish relish
- Cut the radishes in half, then cut the halves into thin half-moons.
- Strip the parsley leaves from the stems; coarsely chop the leaves.
- Juice the lemon. [Juice 1 lemon; save the remaining lemon for another use.]
In a small bowl, stir together the radishes, parsley, 1 tablespoon [2 TBL] lemon juice, and 1 tablespoon [2 TBL] oil. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
2
Cook the chard
In a large frying pan over medium-high heat, warm 1 to 2 teaspoons oil until hot but not smoking. Working in batches if needed, add the chard, season with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring occasionally, until just wilted, 2 to 4 minutes. Remove from the heat and season to taste with salt and pepper. Transfer to a plate. Wipe out the pan. While the chard is cooking, prepare the shellfish.

Prep and cook the shellfish
For shrimp and jumbo shrimp:
- Rinse and drain the shrimp; pat dry on a paper-towel-lined plate. Transfer the shrimp to a large bowl; season lightly with salt and pepper and as much Urfa chile as you like and toss to coat.
In the same pan used for the chard, warm 1 tablespoon [2 TBL] oil over medium-high heat until hot but not smoking. Add the shrimp and cook, turning once, until firm and cooked through, 1 to 2 minutes per side for regular shrimp, 2 to 3 minutes per side for jumbo shrimp. Transfer to a plate. Meanwhile, prepare the ajo blanco sauce.
For scallops:
- Rinse and drain the scallops; pat dry on a paper-towel-lined plate. Transfer the scallops to a large bowl; season lightly with salt and pepper and as much Urfa chile as you like and toss to coat.
In the same pan used for the chard, warm 1 tablespoon [2 TBL] oil over medium-high heat until hot but not smoking. Add the scallops and cook without turning until golden brown on one side and starting to turn opaque, 2 to 4 minutes. Turn and continue cooking for about 30 seconds for translucent or 1 to 2 minutes for opaque. Transfer to a plate. Meanwhile, prepare the ajo blanco sauce.

Warm the ajo blanco sauce
In a small sauce pot over medium heat, combine the ajo blanco sauce base and sherry vinegar and season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until heated through, 2 to 3 minutes. Divide the sauce between 2 [4] individual plates.
Serve
Place the chard on top of the ajo blanco sauce on the plates. Spoon on the shellfish, top with the radish relish, and serve.
