LEMON BUTTERED SEARED SCALLOPS

Provided by Valerie Bertinelli

Categories     main-dish

Time 55m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 pound dry sea scallops (12 to 15 scallops), side muscles removed
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 tablespoons Compound Lemon Butter, recipe follows
1/4 cup dry white wine
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 tablespoon lemon zest plus 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt

Steps:

  • Place the scallops on a paper towel-lined sheet tray and pat dry. Sprinkle the scallops with salt and pepper.
  • Preheat a large nonstick saute pan on medium-high heat, then add the oil and heat until shimmering. Add the scallops and sear on one side until golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes. Gently turn the scallops over and add the Lemon Butter, basting the scallops by gently spooning the melting butter over the top, for about 1 minute.
  • Add the wine and lemon juice and allow the scallops to simmer until they are cooked through, another 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer the scallops to a platter and sprinkle with the chives.
  • Combine the butter, lemon zest, lemon juice and salt in a medium bowl and stir until smooth. Spoon the butter onto the lower third of a piece of plastic wrap. Fold the plastic wrap over the butter and use a spatula to compress the butter into a log about 5 inches long and 2 inches wide. Twist both ends of the plastic wrap to seal the butter inside. Refrigerate the butter until firm, at least 30 minutes, before using.

THE REALTOR'S SAUTEED SCALLOPS WITH LEMON-MUSTARD SAUCE



The Realtor's Sauteed Scallops With Lemon-Mustard Sauce image

I serve these delicious little gems on top of big crusty slices of garlic bread... YUM! It's supposed to serve 4 as a main dish but my DH and I finish this off ourselves. As an appetizer, it will serve 8. If you like my idea for serving, be sure to pick up a big loaf of Italian bread to make the garlic bread (it's not in the ingredient list). I found this in a magazine some time ago.

SAUTéED SCALLOPS WITH MUSHROOMS & SPINACH SAUCE



Sautéed scallops with mushrooms & spinach sauce image

A quick, impressive dish that's easy to prepare and cook, creating stacks of flavour within minutes

Provided by Gary Rhodes

Categories     Dinner, Side dish, Starter

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 6

3 big knobs of butter
100g mushroom , sliced (button, chestnut or cleaned wild)
100g spinach , stems trimmed and washed
2 tsp groundnut oil
6 good-sized scallops , shelled and cleaned (with or without corals)
nutmeg , for grating

Steps:

  • Melt a knob of butter in a frying pan. Once sizzling, add the mushrooms and fry for just a min or two before adding the spinach. Cook on a high heat for about 1 min, allowing the leaves to wilt and soften. Drain the leaves and mushrooms in a sieve or small colander set over a bowl, pressing them gently in the sieve to release the juices (the juices will provide the base for the sauce, so don't discard them). Keep warm to one side.
  • Heat the oil in a separate clean frying pan. When very hot, add the scallops. Sauté for a couple of mins without disturbing them at all, then add a knob of butter to the pan. Turn the scallops, season with salt and pepper, then baste with the sizzling butter. Continue to cook for a further couple of mins until the scallops are ready.
  • While sautéing the scallops, return the saved spinach juices to the pan the spinach and mushrooms were cooked in, then whisk in the remaining knob of butter to create the sauce. Season with salt and pepper and a grating of nutmeg.
  • Now finish in style: Arrange spinach and mushrooms on plates or in bowls, sit the scallops on top, then spoon the nutmeg spinach sauce around.
