Drain the seafood in a fine-mesh strainer. Spread the seafood in a single layer on the grill pan, and then cook over direct high heat, with the lid closed, until slightly firm on the surface and completely opaque in the center, 3 to 5 minutes, turning once or twice for even cooking. Wearing insulated barbecue mitts or gloves, transfer the pan from the grill and rest it on a sheet pan. Transfer the seafood to a large bowl to stop the cooking.
