SAVORY SEA SCALLOPS IN WHITE WINE SAUCE



Savory Sea Scallops in White Wine Sauce image

This is such an easy dish but with great end results! I serve it with a pasta such as my Recipe #55679. Yummy!

Provided by polly salama

Categories     Low Cholesterol

Time 15m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil
1 1/2 lbs sea scallops
2 cups dry white wine
3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon butter
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 tablespoons minced parsley
fresh ground pepper

Steps:

  • Heat oil in heavy skillet over high heat.
  • When oil begins to smoke add scallops.
  • Sear each side for one minute or until each side is golden brown.
  • Add 1/2 cup of wine and lower heat to medium.
  • Simmer for 2 minutes.
  • Remove scallops from pan.
  • Add remaining wine and lemon juice,and garlic.
  • Bring to a boil and reduce by half.
  • Add butter, parsley and season with pepper.
  • Place scallops on a plate and smother with sauce.
  • Serve.

Tips:

  • Use fresh and high-quality seafood: Fresh seafood will have a better flavor and texture than frozen seafood. If you are using frozen seafood, thaw it properly before cooking.
  • Cook the seafood properly: Seafood should be cooked just until it is opaque and cooked through. Overcooked seafood will be tough and rubbery.
  • Use a good quality white wine: The white wine you use in the sauce should be a dry white wine that you would enjoy drinking. A good Sauvignon Blanc or Pinot Grigio are good choices.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the seafood, do not overcrowd the pan. This will cause the seafood to steam instead of sear, resulting in a less flavorful dish.
  • Use fresh herbs: Fresh herbs, such as parsley, thyme, and rosemary, will add a lot of flavor to the sauce. If you don't have fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs, but use about half the amount.
  • Serve immediately: This dish is best served immediately after it is cooked. The seafood will continue to cook if it sits for too long, making it tough and rubbery.

Conclusion:

This easy shrimp and scallop in white wine sauce is a delicious and elegant dish that is perfect for a special occasion. It is also a relatively quick and easy dish to make, making it a great option for a weeknight meal. With its combination of fresh seafood, creamy sauce, and flavorful herbs, this dish is sure to please everyone at the table.
