Directions:
Directions:
Make the salad: Combine edamame, bell pepper, sesame seeds, lime juice, chili paste, salt/pepper.
Make the puree: Process edamame, lime juice, water, mint, garlic, salt and pepper, in a food processor until smooth. (The puree should be warm from the just-cooked edamame; reheat it in a saucepan over low heat if necessary).
Make the scallops: season both sides of each scallop with salt and pepper. Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until very hot but not smoking. Add scallops, and cook until golden brown, 1-2 minutes per side.
Divide warm edamame puree among serving plates. Top with scallops and salad, and serve with lime wedges.

Personal Notes:
I didn't have limes, so used the 4.5 oz bottled lime juice and it turned out fine
I used a bag of Trader Joe's wild scallops in place of fresh.
