SEARED SCALLOP PASTA WITH BURST TOMATOES AND HERBS



Seared Scallop Pasta With Burst Tomatoes and Herbs image

Although usually designated as a "something special" ingredient, scallops make a perfect weeknight dinner because they cook in minutes. To get a good, crisp sear, be patient (it's hard for us, too) and let the pan get quite hot before adding the scallops. Once you do, leave them alone to ensure a deeply golden crust. Toss them with pasta and candy-colored cherry tomatoes that burst and get coaxed into a jammy sauce. Finish with a showering of fresh, tender herbs and a drizzle of olive oil.

Time 30m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

Kosher salt and black pepper
1 pound linguine fini or other long, thin pasta
4 tablespoons olive oil, plus more for drizzling
2 shallots, thinly sliced into rings
1 1/4 pounds Sun Gold, cherry or grape tomatoes
2 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
Pinch of red-pepper flakes (optional)
1 pound large sea scallops, patted dry
1 1/2 cups roughly chopped mixed herbs, such as tarragon, mint, parsley and chives, plus more for serving

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of well-salted water (2 heaping tablespoons kosher salt to about 7 quarts water) to a boil. Add the pasta and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Reserve 1 1/2 cups pasta cooking water, then drain pasta.
  • Wipe out the pot and heat 2 tablespoons olive oil over medium. Add the shallots and cook until they begin to soften, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the tomatoes and cook, stirring occasionally, until they start to burst, 5 to 7 minutes. Add about 1/3 cup reserved pasta water, and press the tomatoes gently with the back of a spatula or wooden spoon to get them nice and jammy. Stir in the garlic and red-pepper flakes, if using, and cook, allowing the sauce to simmer, 1 to 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper; set aside.
  • Season the scallops well on both sides with salt and pepper. In a 12-inch skillet, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil over high. When the oil shimmers, add the scallops, working in batches to avoid crowding the pan, and cook until golden brown and crisp, flipping once, 1 to 2 minutes per side.
  • Add the pasta, 1 1/2 cups herbs and 1/4 cup reserved pasta water to the pot with the tomatoes and toss to coat, adding additional pasta water if needed. Divide the pasta among shallow bowls and top with scallops. Garnish with additional herbs and a drizzle of olive oil, if desired.

BUTTERY SCALLOPS WITH LEMON AND HERBS



Buttery Scallops With Lemon and Herbs image

Simple and very speedy, this dish shows off the sweetness and delicacy of fresh sea scallops, seasoned with only lemon, garlic, herbs and a sprinkle of red-pepper flakes. A little butter gives it a touch of richness, while the grated lemon zest adds brightness and a jolt of acid. You can serve this with a big green salad for a light meal, or over buttered noodles or mashed potatoes for something more substantial.

Provided by Melissa Clark

Categories     quick, seafood, main course

Time 15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 pounds sea scallops, patted dry
Salt and black pepper
4 to 5 tablespoons unsalted butter
4 garlic cloves, minced
2 tablespoons minced thyme leaves
2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice, plus lemon wedges for garnish
2 teaspoons finely grated lemon zest
Pinch of red-pepper flakes
1/2 cup chopped soft herbs (such as basil, chives, mint or cilantro), for garnish

Steps:

  • Season scallops lightly on both sides with salt and pepper.
  • Heat a large, preferably nonstick skillet over medium-high. Add 3 tablespoons butter and let melt. Place seasoned scallops in the pan in a single layer without touching. (Do this in batches if necessary, using another tablespoon of butter if needed for the second batch.) Cook without moving until bottoms are golden brown, 3 minutes.
  • Flip the scallops and add another tablespoon of butter to the pan. Stir in garlic and thyme, and cook until the garlic is fragrant, about 1 minute longer.
  • If you took any of the scallops out of the pan to cook them in batches, put them back in now. Pour lemon juice on top of all the scallops, sprinkle with the lemon zest, and toss everything gently to combine.
  • Transfer scallops to serving plates and sprinkle red-pepper flakes on top. Garnish with chopped soft herbs and lemon wedges, and serve immediately.

SEA SCALLOPS OVER SHALLOT-HERB PASTA



Sea Scallops Over Shallot-Herb Pasta image

Scallops and fennel take on a casual air when tossed with herbed pasta. Choose larger scallops if possible, so they won't tear as easily on the grill. This recipe comes from Martha Stewart's Grilling: 125+ Recipes for Gatherings Large and Small.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Seafood Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 8

Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
3/4 pound spaghetti or linguine
3 shallots, minced (about 1/4 cup)
1/2 cup plus 1 1/2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for grill
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
2 cups mixed fresh herbs, such as mint, flat-leaf parsley, tarragon, and basil, finely chopped
1 fennel bulb, trimmed, halved lengthwise, and thinly sliced crosswise, plus 1/4 cup snipped fronds
24 sea scallops (about 1 1/4 pounds total), tough muscles removed

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. Add pasta and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Meanwhile, place shallots on a cutting board and sprinkle with 1 teaspoon salt. Using the side of a knife, crush into a paste. Transfer to a medium bowl and whisk in 6 tablespoons oil and lemon juice. Add herbs and fennel fronds; mix well. Season with salt and pepper. Drain pasta in a colander and return to pot. Stir in herb sauce; cover to keep warm.
  • Heat grill to medium-high. Toss fennel slices with 1 1/2 teaspoons oil; season with salt and pepper. Toss scallops with remaining 2 tablespoons oil; season with salt and pepper and thread onto skewers (presoaked for 30 minutes, if wooden), if using.
  • Lightly brush grates with oil. Place fennel slices in a grill basket and grill until just wilted and starting to brown, about 5 minutes. Grill scallops, turning halfway through, until golden and just cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes total. Serve scallops and fennel over pasta.

Tips:

  • Choose High-Quality Scallops: Opt for fresh, dry-packed scallops with a slightly briny aroma. Avoid scallops that are slimy or have an off-putting odor.
  • Sear Scallops Properly: Sear scallops in hot oil or butter for a few minutes per side until golden brown. This creates a caramelized crust while keeping the interior tender and juicy.
  • Use Fresh Herbs: Fresh herbs, such as parsley, basil, and thyme, add a vibrant flavor to the dish. Chop them finely just before using to preserve their aroma.
  • Cook Pasta Al Dente: Cook the farfalle pasta according to the package instructions, but aim for al dente, which means slightly firm to the bite.
  • Garnish Before Serving: Before serving, garnish the dish with a sprinkle of freshly chopped herbs and a drizzle of olive oil. This adds a final touch of flavor and color.
