Ingredient IQ

A favorite way to add heat to most any dish, chile flakes tend to contain every part of the dried chile: skin, seeds, and veins (the hottest part because they hold the most capsaicin). Red chile flakes are most often made from crushed dried cayenne chiles, though you can sometimes find them made from ancho and arbol chiles as well. Heat and color can vary widely depending on the brand.

Instructions

2-serving instructions (4-serving modifications in red)

Wash produce before use

1

Prep and cook the chickpeas

  • Peel and thinly slice enough onion to measure ½ cup [1 cup].
  • Rinse the chickpeas.
  • Cut the tomatoes in half.
  • Strip the parsley leaves from the stems; coarsely chop the leaves. Set aside half for garnish.

In a medium [large] sauce pot over medium heat, warm 1 teaspoon [2 tsp] oil until hot but not smoking. Add the onion, season lightly with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion starts to soften, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the chickpeas, tomatoes, and ¼ cup [½ cup] water and season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the tomatoes begin to break down and the chickpeas are softened, 6 to 8 minutes. Remove from the heat and immediately stir in the spinach and half the parsley. Season to taste with salt and pepper. 

While the chickpeas cook, prepare the seafood.

Prep and cook the seafood

For the sole and halibut:
  • Pat the fish dry with a paper towel; season with salt, if desired, and pepper and sprinkle with as many red chile flakes as you like.
In a large frying pan over medium-high heat, warm 1 tablespoon [2 TBL] oil until hot but not smoking. Add the fish, reduce the heat to medium, and cook, turning once, until the fish is cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes per side for sole and 3 to 5 minutes per side for halibut. Transfer to a plate.

For the scallops:
  • Pat the scallops dry with a paper towel; season lightly with salt, if desired, and sprinkle with as many red chile flakes as you like.
In a large frying pan over high heat, warm 1 teaspoon [2 tsp] oil 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.

Serve

Transfer the chickpeas to individual bowls. Top with the seafood and drizzle with as much Greek vinaigrette as you like. Garnish with the remaining parsley and serve any remaining vinaigrette on the side.
