Categories     appetizer

Time 15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 1/2 pounds sea scallops
3 ripe plum tomatoes, about 1/2 pound
2 tablespoons butter or olive oil
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
1/3 cup finely chopped shallots or scallions
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon Tabasco sauce
4 tablespoons chopped fresh coriander

Steps:

  • Cut in half each scallop crosswise if too large. Set them aside.
  • Drop the tomatoes into boiling water for 12 seconds to loosen the skin. Remove the skins and halve them to remove the seeds. Cut the tomatoes into small cubes.
  • Melt the butter in a large non-stick skillet over high heat. Add the scallops, salt and pepper. Saute the scallops, shaking the skillet and stirring so that they cook evenly, about 4 minutes.
  • Add the shallots, tomatoes, lemon juice, Tabasco and cook and stir over high heat for 2 minutes. Sprinkle the coriander over all and serve immediately.
