SURF AND TURF: SCALLOPS AND FILET MIGNON IN MUSHROOM CREAM SAUCE
Here's a perfect date-night surf-and-turf menu you can cook together. We like scallops for the "surf" element instead of the usual lobster; they're a cinch to cook up if you use a hot pan with very little fat. We add well-seasoned steaks given a fast sear for juiciness and topped with a versatile, savory mushroom sauce. Asparagus makes the perfect quick-and-elegant side.

Steps:
- For the perfect filet mignon: Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Heat a 10- to 12-inch cast-iron skillet over high heat for 2 to 3 minutes.
- Pat the steaks dry with paper towels. Combine the sugar, salt and pepper in a small bowl. Sprinkle the mixture over all sides of the steaks and drizzle with oil.
- Place the steaks in the hot skillet and sear until GBD (golden, brown and delicious), 1 to 2 minutes. Flip the steaks with tongs. Add the garlic cloves, thyme and rosemary to the skillet. Place the pan in the oven and roast until the steaks reach the desired doneness, 6 to 10 minutes for medium-rare; an instant-read thermometer inserted in the center of a steak should register 125 degrees F for medium-rare, 135 degrees F for medium and 145 degrees F for medium-well.
- Remove the skillet from the oven and add the butter. As the butter melts, baste it over the steaks and herbs. Cover the steaks loosely with foil and rest for 5 to 10 minutes.
- For the mushroom cream sauce: Heat a large skillet over high heat until hot, 1 to 2 minutes. Swirl in the butter until melted. Add the mushrooms and season with a healthy pinch of salt and pepper. Grate the garlic over the mushrooms with a rasp grater. Stir occasionally until the mushrooms release liquid, about 3 minutes. Stir in the wine and scrape the bottom of the skillet. Cook until the pan is almost bone dry, 2 to 3 minutes longer.
- Stir in the broth, cream and thyme. Lower the heat until the sauce simmers. Season with salt and pepper and simmer until the sauce is thick enough to coat the back of a wooden spoon, 5 to 10 minutes. Set aside.
- For the asparagus with lemon and garlic: Heat a large skillet over high heat until very hot, 1 to 2 minutes. Swirl in the oil. Add the asparagus and cook for 30 seconds. Grate the garlic and lemon zest over the asparagus with a rasp grater. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the edges of the asparagus start to brown but the spears are still crisp, about 3 minutes longer.
- Sprinkle the asparagus with a fat pinch of salt and pepper. Cut the lemon in half and squeeze the juice of half over the asparagus. Stir and season with more salt and pepper if desired.
- For the seared sea scallops: Heat a large cast-iron skillet over high heat until very hot, 2 to 3 minutes. Place the flour on a plate. Use paper towels to dry the scallops well. Season them with salt and pepper, then lightly coat them on all sides with flour.
- Add the oil to the skillet and swirl to coat the entire pan. Carefully place the scallops in the hot skillet. Let them sear without disturbing them until browned on the bottom, 1 to 2 minutes. Flip and cook until warm in the middle, about 1 minute longer. Transfer the scallops to a paper towel-lined plate until ready to serve.
- To serve, place a steak whole or sliced on each plate. Arrange the scallops and some of the asparagus on each plate. Smother the steak with the mushroom sauce and serve.

COQUILLES ST. JACQUES (SCALLOPS WITH MUSHROOMS IN CREAM SAUCE)
Steps:
- Melt 1 tablespoon of the butter in a saucepan and add the shallots. Cook briefly, stirring, and add the mushrooms. Cook until wilted and add the salt, pepper, and wine. Add the scallops and bring to the boil. Cook until all the scallops are heated through, stirring gently as necessary. Take care not to let the scallops overcook or they will toughen. Using a slotted spoon, remove and set aside the scallops and mushrooms. Reserve the liquid. There should be about 3/4 cup of liquid. Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a saucepan and add the flour, stirring rapidly with a wire whisk. When blended add the reserved liquid, stirring until thickened and smooth. Add the milk and 1 cup of the cream. Cook for about 5 minutes. Add salt and pepper to taste and a pinch of cayenne. Whip the remaining 2 tablespoons of heavy cream. Fold it into the sauce. Use 6 individual scallop shells or ramekins. Spoon equal portions of the scallops and mushrooms into each shell. Spoon the sauce over the scallop mixture. Preheat the broiler to high. Place the filled shells under the broiler about 6 inches from the source of heat and bake until a nice brown glaze forms on top. As the scallops broil, turn shells occasionally for even browning, about 5 minutes. Serve immediately.

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.

VEAL SCALLOPS WITH CREAMY MUSHROOM SAUCE

SEA SCALLOPS WITH MUSHROOMS AND SHERRY
Steps:
- Pat scallops dry and sprinkle with pepper and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
- Heat oil in a 12-inch heavy skillet over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking, then cook scallops, turning over once, until browned well and just cooked through, 5 to 7 minutes total. Transfer to a platter and loosely cover.
- Heat 2 tablespoons butter in skillet over moderately high heat until foam subsides, then sauté mushrooms, stirring occasionally, until golden, about 4 minutes. Add shallots and garlic and sauté, stirring, 2 minutes. Add Sherry, vinegar, soy sauce, and remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt and simmer, uncovered, stirring occasionally, 2 minutes. Cut remaining 2 tablespoons butter into small pieces.
- Remove skillet from heat and stir in butter until incorporated. Spoon sauce over scallops.
Tips:
- Choose the right scallops. Look for firm, plump scallops with a slightly sweet smell. Avoid scallops that are slimy or have a strong fishy odor.
- Cook the scallops properly. Scallops are best cooked quickly over high heat. This will help to preserve their delicate flavor and texture. Sear them for 2-3 minutes per side, or until they are just cooked through.
- Use fresh mushrooms. Fresh mushrooms will have a more intense flavor than dried mushrooms. If you are using dried mushrooms, be sure to soak them in warm water for at least 30 minutes before using.
- Don't overcrowd the pan. When cooking the scallops and mushrooms, be sure to not overcrowd the pan. This will prevent them from cooking evenly.
- Season to taste. Be sure to season the scallops and mushrooms with salt and pepper to taste.
Conclusion:
Scallops, mushrooms, and rice in cream sauce is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The scallops are cooked quickly and easily, and the mushrooms add a savory flavor to the dish. The rice is cooked in a creamy sauce that is made with white wine, cream, and Parmesan cheese.
