GRILLED SCALLIONS WITH ROMESCO SAUCE
I like cooking scallions when they are in season; they are fresh with mild flavor. I normally prepare them in variety of dishes such as fish, chicken or meat or I just use them as a garnish.
Putting scallions on the table this spring is a good idea to add brightness, color and flavor, therefore, I made Romesco sauce which pairs very well with grilled scallions.
