DELICIOUS. COQUILLES ST JACQUES
This is a Jane Lawson recipe from the June '07 issue of the Aussie magazine "delicious." which I have changed slightly. I had an old tried and true recipe for this dish but it's been thrown away - this is THE Coquilles St J recipe, for me, anyway. The sauce would also be good over lobster. Seems like a lot of work but it isn't.

Steps:
- Trim scallops of any hard muscle or membrane, toss with enough olive oil to just coat.
- Heat a large, heavy-based fry pan over high heat. Season the scallops with a little sea salt then sear quickly on each side for 10 seconds, or until just colored. Remove from pan & place 4 into small serving dishes.
- Reduce heat to medium. Add half the butter to the pan. When melted cook shallot, mushrooms and garlic for 6 - 8 minutes. Remove and set aside.
- Add remaining butter to pan, melt, then sprinkle over flour and stir until smooth. Whisk in the wine, cook for 1 minute.
- Whisk in the stock, then cream, until smooth.
- Add bay leaf and lemon juice, stirring until sauce boils and thickens.
- Add shallot and mushroom mixture, with the egg yolk, parsley (or chervil) and 2 tablespoons gruyere and stir to combine.
- Remove from heat, season with salt & white pepper.
- Preheat grill (broiler) to medium-high.
- remove bay leaf from sauce, then spoon sauce evenly over the scallops.
- Combine the crumbs with the remaining cheese and evenly divide over the top of the scallops and sauce.
- Grill for about 5 minutes or until golden on top and heated through.
