When cooking something extremely simple like seared scallops, the best accompaniments to the scallops need not be complicated. Take this easy and fresh recipe from MarthaStewart.com for example: seared jumbo sea scallops served over a crunchy and flavor-filled salad of raw celery, fresh herbs, golden raisins and a light lemon-Dijon vinaigrette.  The decadent, tender texture of the scallops pairs wonderfully with a crisp, raw salad like this one.  A nice addition to the salad could also be diced, sweet apples and even a few walnuts or pine nuts.
