  1. 1

    In heatproof bowl, add 1 cup boiling water to the bulgur; let stand 30 minutes. In a medium size saucepan, bring about 3/4 inch of salted water to a boil, add the scallops, lower the heat and let simmer 2 minute Drain and cool.

  2. 2

    Pour the bulgur into a colander lined with several layers cheesecloth or with a clean kitchen towel. Gather the ends of the cloth or towel together and squeeze out all the liquid. (Alternatively, you can drain in a close woven sieve.)

  3. 3

    Place bulgur in a large bowl, add parsley through scallions and toss well. Whisk together the dressing ingredients or shake in a jar to combine. Add dressing to the bulgur mixture, tossing to coat evenly.

  4. 4

    Chill 1 hour to overnight. If chilling longer than 1 hour, chill scallops and shrimp separately and just add to tabbouli 1 hour before serving.
