Categories     main-dish

Time 30m

Yield 2 servings

1/2 pound linguini
1 pound sea scallops
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil, plus some for drizzling
3 tablespoons butter, divided
2 cloves garlic, chopped
1 large shallot, finely chopped
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
4 springs fresh thyme, leaves removed and chopped
1 cup dry white wine
1 cup seafood stock or clam juice
25 leaves fresh basil, shredded or torn
1/2 cup chopped flat-leaf parsley, a handful

1/2 pint grape or cherry tomatoes, cut in 1/2
Drizzle extra-virgin olive oil
Splash balsamic vinegar
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Strawberries
Split of Champagne, perfect for 2

Steps:

  • Place a large pot of water over high heat and bring up to a boil for the pasta. Once at a boil add some salt and cook pasta to package directions. Hold off on starting the scallops until you drop your pasta.
  • Remove the mussel from the scallops then with a paper towel pat them dry and season them with salt and pepper.
  • Preheat a large skillet over medium high heat. Add 1 tablespoon of extra-virgin olive oil, about 1 turn around the pan and 2 tablespoons of the butter. When butter melts into oil, add scallops. Brown scallops 2 minutes on each side, then remove from pan and cover loosely with foil to keep warm.
  • Add an additional drizzle of olive oil to the skillet and add the garlic, shallots, crushed red pepper flakes, thyme, a little salt and pepper. Reduce heat a little and saute garlic and shallots 1 to 2 minutes, stirring constantly. Add wine to the pan and free up any pan drippings. Reduce wine 1 minute, then add seafood stock. Continue to cook for about 1 minute. Add the basil, parsley, lemon zest and juice and the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter, shake and stir the mixture until the butter has melted. Add the cooked linguini and cook for about 30 seconds, just to combine and let the pasta soak up the sauce.
  • Divide the pasta between 2 serving plates and top with reserved scallops.
  • For the side salad, in a bowl combine the arugula and tomatoes, drizzle with a little extra-virgin olive oil, a splash of balsamic vinegar, and season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat and serve.
  • And for dessert, rinse strawberries and arrange on a plate. Serve with a glass of Champagne.

Tips:

  • Mise en place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all your ingredients and equipment ready. This will help you stay organized and ensure that your scallops are cooked perfectly.
  • Choose the right scallops: Look for dry scallops that are about 1 to 1 1/2 inches in diameter. Avoid scallops that are wet or slimy, as these may be old or spoiled.
  • Sear the scallops properly: To get a nice sear on your scallops, make sure your pan is hot before adding them. Sear the scallops for 2-3 minutes per side, or until they are golden brown and cooked through.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: If you overcrowd the pan, the scallops will not cook evenly. Cook the scallops in batches if necessary.
  • Use a good quality white wine: The wine you use will play a big role in the flavor of the sauce. Choose a dry white wine that you enjoy drinking.
  • Reduce the wine sauce: Reducing the wine sauce will concentrate the flavors and give it a thicker consistency. Simmer the sauce for 5-7 minutes, or until it has reduced by about half.
  • Serve the scallops immediately: Scallops are best served immediately after they are cooked. They can be served over rice, pasta, or vegetables.

Conclusion:

Scallops in wine sauce is a classic French dish that is both elegant and delicious. It is a great choice for a special occasion dinner or a romantic meal. The scallops are perfectly seared and the wine sauce is rich and flavorful. This dish is sure to impress your guests.
