Yield feeds 4

Number Of Ingredients 15

The Shellfish
2 dozen littleneck clams
1/4 cup olive oil
6 large cloves garlic, minced
1 cup clam juice
1 cup white wine
6 tablespoons Mutha Sauce (page 165)
1 teaspoon crushed red pepper
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1/2 to 3/4 pound shrimp, in the shell (12 to 16 total)
1/2 pound sea scallops (preferably dry-packed)
1 tablespoon heavy cream
10 fresh basil leaves, chopped
The Garnish
2 tablespoons chopped fresh Italian parsley

Steps:

  • Give the clams a good scrubbing, discarding any with cracked or open shells. Set aside. Heat the oil over medium-high in a pan that you can cover later. Throw in the garlic and cook for 2 minutes. Pour in the clam juice, wine, and Mutha Sauce. When the mixture is bubbling, add the clams. Cover and cook til the clams open, 3 to 5 minutes. Pull out the clams as they open, and keep them warm. (Pitch any clams that don't open.)
  • Boil and reduce the pan juices over high heat for about 8 minutes. Sprinkle in the red pepper and season up the sauce with Worcestershire.
  • Toss in the shrimp and scallops. Simmer til they're cooked and have just turned opaque, about 4 minutes. Swirl in the cream and basil. Return the clams to the pan, and gently stir together all the shellfish. Sprinkle with parsley and serve steaming hot.

CLAM, SHRIMP AND SCALLOP PAN ROAST



Clam, Shrimp and Scallop Pan Roast image

From "Dinosaur Barbeque, An American Roadhouse" by John Stage and Nancy Radke. The book says, "Shellfish lovers drool over the drunken-sweet richness of the sea infusing every inch of this dish. You can use clams, shrimp and scallops or substitute your own favorites: mussels, oysters or even some firm-fleshed fish. Just be sure to serve the pan roast with a spoon and plenty of good bread to sop up all the tasty sauce."

SCALLOP PAN ROAST



SCALLOP PAN ROAST image

Categories     Soup/Stew     Shellfish     Quick & Easy

Yield 2 bowls

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/3 cup clam juice
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons chili sauce (heinz)
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
4 tablespoons Gin
1/2 teaspoon paprika
2 dashes celery salt
1 dash tobasco sauce
1/2 pound bay scallops
1/2 cup heavy cream
3/4 cup whole milk
2 slices toast

Steps:

  • 1. In a heavy saucepan over low heat combine clam juice, 2 tablespoons butter, chili sauce, Worcestershire sauce, gin, paprika, celery salt and tobasco; bring just to a simmer. 2. Add scallops and let cook for 30 seconds without simmering (if you see a bubble pull pan off heat for a few seconds). Add cream and milk and continue to heat until simmering until mixture is steaming hot and scallops are opaque, about 2 minutes longer. 3. Place a piece of toast in each of two bowls and then add pan roast, dividing scallops evenly. Float remaining butter on top. 1/2 tablespoon a bowl. Eat immediately.

Tips:

  • For the best results, use fresh, dry sea scallops. If using frozen scallops, thaw them overnight in the refrigerator or under cold running water.
  • To prevent the scallops from sticking to the pan, make sure the pan is hot and well-oiled before adding the scallops.
  • Sear the scallops for 2-3 minutes per side, or until they are golden brown and opaque throughout.
  • Do not overcrowd the pan, or the scallops will not cook evenly.
  • If the scallops are too large, you can cut them in half or quarters before cooking.
  • Serve the scallops immediately with your favorite sides, such as rice, pasta, or vegetables.

Conclusion:

Scallop pan roast is a quick and easy dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The scallops are seared until golden brown and then simmered in a flavorful sauce. The result is a delicious and elegant dish that is sure to impress your guests. So next time you're looking for a seafood dish that is both easy to make and delicious, give scallop pan roast a try.
