Scallops in Pernod and Cream image

This is a delicious dish. My father made it for me and gave me the recipe several years ago. I'm afraid I'm not sure where he got the recipe, but I believe it was from a chef at an inn in Maine. Like most absolutely fabulous dishes, this is not low fat but definitely worth the indulgence! This is really nice with a long grain rice and wild rice mixture or with nice crusty bread to sop up the sauce. Can be served as an appetizer or a main course.

Number Of Ingredients 7

12 large sea scallops
salt and pepper
1/4 cup flour
1/4 cup clarified butter
1/4 cup Pernod
1 cup whipping cream
1/4 cup fresh chives, chopped

Steps:

  • Season scallops with salt and pepper. Flour them heavily, patting away the excess.
  • Saute scallops in clarified butter until golden brown.
  • Add pernod carefully and flambe. Once flame has gone out add cream.
  • Reduce heat and cook until cream thickens and bubbles glisten.
  • Stir in chives and serve immediately.
  • Note: You may have to remove smaller/thinner scallops to a warm plate while cream sauce thickens, then return them to the pan once sauce has reached desired consistency.

Avoid this recipe at all costs! It's the worst scallop dish I've ever had.

I highly recommend serving this dish with a side of roasted vegetables. It's a great way to balance out the richness of the sauce.

The Pernod and cream sauce is what really makes this dish special. It's so rich and decadent, but not too heavy.

I've made this dish several times and it always turns out great! The scallops are always tender and juicy, and the sauce is so creamy and flavorful.

This dish was absolutely divine! The scallops were cooked perfectly and the Pernod and cream sauce was so flavorful. I served it over angel hair pasta and it was a hit with my family.
