This is a fabulous and easy wine and butter sauce for seafood and vegetables. I especially like it with scallops.

Time 40m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 8

¼ cup white wine
¼ cup white wine vinegar
1 tablespoon shallots
½ cup heavy cream
¾ cup butter
24 sea scallops
1 tablespoon olive oil
salt and pepper to taste

Steps:

  • In a medium saucepan, combine white wine, wine vinegar, and shallots. Cook until liquid is almost evaporated, approximately 1 tablespoon left. Stir in heavy cream and let boil down until reduced by half. Stir in butter 1 tablespoon at a time, allowing each to melt before adding the next. Keep warm while preparing the scallops.
  • Preheat oven on broiler setting.
  • Brush scallops with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place under preheated broiler for 2 minutes on each side, until scallops are opaque, with a bit of brown around the edges. Place a spoonful of sauce on each plate, and top with 4 scallops.
