   1. Rinse scallops well, pat dry, and cut crosswise about 1/4" thick.
   2. To a 10-12" frying pan over medium-high heat, add oil and ginger. When
   hot, add 1/2 the scallops; turn often with a wide spatula until scallops
   are tinged with gold and no longer translucent in center (cut to test),
   about 4 minutes.
   3. With a slotted spoon, transfer scallops to a small bowl. Cook remaining
   scallops; add to bowl. Drain juices from scallops back into frying pan;
   bring to a boil; then remove from heat. Stir in lime juice, marjoram,
   sugar, pepper, and onion.
   4. Put leaves in a wide, shallow bowl. At once, pour hot dressing over
   them; mix, then push leaves to 1 side of the bowl. Mound scallops and
   potato chips separately beside leaves. Present salad, then mix.
