SCALLOPS WITH SHIITAKE AND OYSTER MUSHROOMS RECIPE - (3.9/5)
Provided by á-25087
Number Of Ingredients 12
Steps:
- Prepare mushrooms. Gently brush away any dirt on mushrooms with a dry wad of paper towel. Remove stems from shiitakes [they can be tough] and slice mushroom caps into halves or thirds, depending on size. Carefully pull apart oyster mushrooms into individual petals. Slice the largest ones in half lengthwise. Melt 3 tablespoons of butter in a large nonstick lidded skillet over medium heat. Sauté the shiitake and oyster mushrooms for 5 minutes, or until they are browned, stirring occasionally and sprinkling them lightly with salt and pepper as they cook. Add the scallions, ginger and wine. Cook the mixture, tossing or stirring, until the wine is almost evaporated. Add the broth. Reduce heat to medium low, cover the pan and let the mushrooms stew until they are soft, about 10 to 15 minutes. Uncover the pan and remove the ginger slices. This can be done up to four hours in advance. Reheat before proceeding. Prepare scallops. Rinse scallops carefully to remove any grit. If your scallops have white, sinewy looking pieces on the side, trim them off with a sharp knife; this is the foot that attached it to the shell. Blot scallops dry with paper towels and arrange on plate with flat sides up. Season with salt and pepper. Immediately before plopping them in the skillet to brown, dredge the flat tops and bottoms lightly in flour. In a nonstick skillet, brown the scallops in a mix of canola oil and butter over high heat, about 2 minutes. Transfer the scallops, browned side up, to the pan with the hot mushrooms. Cover the pan, turn off the heat and let the scallops finish cooking in the residual heat of the pan, 2 minutes or so. Divide the scallops on two plates. Spoon the mushroom mixture around the scallops and sprinkle with chopped parsley and serve.
GRILLED SEA SCALLOP AND SHIITAKE SKEWERS
Grilled shiitake mushrooms are crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, and pair nicely with sea scallops. I like to serve them with roasted broccoli, but roasted potatoes are a good choice too.

SCALLOPS AND SHIITAKE MUSHROOMS WITH PEA PUREE
Steps:
- While the hot-water tap runs, put the peas in a 1 1/2 quart microwave-safe container. Add 3 tablespoons hot tap water, cover and cook in a microwave oven on high power for 7 minutes.
- Meanwhile, melt 1 1/2 tablespoons of the butter in a large, heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Remove and discard any stems from the mushrooms and thinly slice the caps. Remove the tough, small strip on the sides of the scallops. If necessary, cut the scallops to make them as close to uniform in size as possible.
- Raise the heat under the skillet to high and add the scallops. Cook for 1 1/2 minutes, turning once halfway through. Add the mushrooms and cook for 2 minutes. Add the herbes de Provence, vermouth and salt and pepper to taste. Cook for 3 minutes while you coarsely chop the chives. The mushrooms will be just wilted and the scallops lightly browned.
- Put the cooked peas and their liquid in a food processor with the remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons of butter and salt and pepper to taste, and puree. To serve, ring a serving platter with the puree and put the scallops and mushrooms in the middle. Sprinkle with the chives.

Tips:
- Prep Your Ingredients: Before you start cooking, make sure all your ingredients are prepped and measured out. This will help the cooking process go smoothly and quickly.
- Choose Fresh Scallops: For the best results, use fresh scallops that are firm and have a briny smell. Avoid any scallops that are slimy or have an off odor.
- Sear the Scallops Properly: To get a nice sear on your scallops, make sure your pan is hot before adding them. Sear them for 2-3 minutes per side, or until they are golden brown and cooked through.
- Don't Overcook the Scallops: Scallops cook quickly, so be careful not to overcook them. Overcooked scallops will become tough and rubbery.
- Use a Variety of Shiitake Mushrooms: For a more complex flavor, use a variety of shiitake mushrooms, such as fresh, dried, and smoked. This will add depth and richness to the dish.
- Add Some Greens: To balance out the richness of the scallops and shiitakes, add some greens to the dish, such as baby spinach, arugula, or watercress.
