Pan-Seared Scallops with White Bean-Salami Salad

Why this recipe works: Mild, sweet sea scallops pair very nicely with this tangy, meaty bean salad. Perfect for dining al fresco tonight!!
(serves 4)

2 15 oz. cans cannellini beans, drained and rinsed well*
2 oz. thinly sliced genoa salami, halved, then cut crosswise into thin strips
5 T. EVOO
1/4 cup fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves
1 shallot, halved and sliced thin
2 T. sherry vinegar
2 t. Dijon mustard
Kosher* salt and freshly* ground black pepper
1&1/2 lbs. large sea scallops, tendons removed
Lemon crowns*, for garnish

Combine all ingredients through S&P (use 3 T. oil) in a bowl. Divide salad evenly among 4 bowls.
Pat scallops dry with paper towels and season with S&P. Heat 1 T. oil in a 12" nonstick skillet over med.-high heat until just smoking. Add half of the scallops in a single layer, flat side down., and cook, without moving them, until well browned, 1&1/2-2 min. per side. transfer scallops to plate and tent with foil. Repeat with remaining scallops. Divide scallops evenly among the bowls, and serve with lemon crowns, and a warm loaf of crusty bread*.
