This is a great recipe I saw on Food Network. I gave it a try and now it has become a real regular in my house. Its a hit at parties and is a quick way to cook up some gourmet tasting seafood!
Ingredients
- 1 pound fresh bay or sea scallops shopping list
- kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper shopping list
- all-purpose flour, for dredging shopping list
- 4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, divided shopping list
- 1/2 cup chopped shallots (2 large) shopping list
- 1 garlic clove, minced shopping list
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves shopping list
- 1/3 cup dry white wine shopping list
- 1 lemon, cut in 1/2 shopping list
How to make it
- If you're using bay scallops, keep them whole. If you're using sea scallops, cut each 1 in half horizontally.
- Sprinkle with salt and pepper, toss with flour, and shake off the excess.
- In a very large saute pan, heat 2 tablespoons of the butter over high heat until sizzling and add the scallops in 1 layer.
- Lower the heat to medium and allow the scallops to brown lightly on 1 side without moving them, then turn and brown lightly on the other side.
- This should take 3 to 4 minutes, total.
- Melt the rest of the butter in the pan with the scallops, then add the shallots, garlic, and parsley and saute for 2 more minutes, tossing the seasonings with the scallops.
- Add the wine, cook for 1 minute, and taste for seasoning. Serve hot with a squeeze of lemon juice.
- Enjoy!
