Seared Scallops with Asparagus Sauce

Seared Scallops with Asparagus Sauce - scallops recipe photo

Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Salt the scallops:

    Salt the scallops well and set aside at room temperature while you make the asparagus sauce.

  2. Cook the asparagus for the sauce:

    Use a potato peeler to shave the outer layer off the asparagus spears, up to about three-quarters of the way up the spear. This part is more fibrous and will not break down as well in the blender. Chop the asparagus spears into 2-inch pieces.

    Boil the asparagus in a pot of salted water for 5 to 8 minutes. This is longer than you’d normally cook asparagus, but you want the spears to blend well later.

    Remove the asparagus from the pot. If you want to retain that vibrant green color, shock them in an ice bath.

  3. Make the asparagus sauce:

    Put the cooked asparagus in a food processor or blender. Add half the chicken stock and purée until smooth. (If you want an even smoother texture, you can push the purée through a fine mesh sieve or a food mill.)

    Pour the sauce into a small pot and add the butter. Heat over very low heat until the butter melts, but do not let it boil, or even simmer. The sauce should be warm, not hot. If the sauce is too thick, you can add more chicken stock. Add salt to taste.

  4. Sear the scallops on one side:

    Pat the scallops dry with a paper towel. Heat a sauté pan on high heat. Add your cooking oil, and let it heat up for 2 minutes. The pan should be very hot. If it starts to smoke, move the pan off the heat. Lay in the scallops in the pan, well separated from each other. You might need to sear in batches.

    If your scallops are thicker than 1 inch, turn the heat down to medium-high. Most sea scallops are about an inch. Let them sear without moving for at least 3-4 minutes.

    Keep an eye on them. You will see a crust beginning to form on the outside edge of the scallop, and the meat will begin to whiten upward. A good time to check the scallop is when you see a golden brown ring at the edge of the scallop.

    Try picking it up with tongs, and if it comes cleanly, check it—you should see a deep golden sear. If not, let it back down and keep searing.

  5. Sear the scallops on the other side:

    When the scallops are well seared on one side, turn them over and sear on high heat for 1 minute (give or take). Then turn off the heat.

    The residual heat will continue to cook the scallops for a few minutes. Let the scallops cook for at least another minute, or more if you like your scallops well-done.

  6. Serve:

    To serve pour a little sauce in the middle of the plate, top with the scallops, the more browned side up.

    Serve at once. Garnish with a little chopped parsley if you want, and maybe with a wedge of lemon.

Pan Seared Scallops with Sweet Corn and Chiles

Pan Seared Scallops with Sweet Corn and Chiles - scallops recipe photo

Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Remove the corn kernels:

    Set an ear of corn on a cutting board, and working from the thick to the narrow end, cut off 2 rows of kernels. Turn and cut off 2 or 3 more rows. Continue in this way until all the kernels are off all the cobs. Transfer to a large bowl.

    Remove the corn kernels:
  2. Scrape the cob to release the creamy milk from the corn:

    After you have removed the kernels, hold one cob over the rim of the bowl of corn, and use the back of the knife to rub across it, going back and forth, to release the pulpy corn milk into the bowl.

    Repeat with all the ears. You should be able to get about 1 tablespoon of corn milk per cob. The starchy liquid of the corn milk adds creaminess to the kernels.

    Scrape the cob to release the creamy milk from the corn:
  3. Cook the corn:

    In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the onion and diced poblano. Cook, stirring often, for about 5 minutes, or until the vegetables soften. Add the corn, corn milk, cream, water, salt, and pepper. Cook, stirring often, for 3 to 4 minutes, or until the kernels are tender. Remove from heat.

    The mixture should look creamy. If it seems dry, stir in more water, 1 tablespoon at a time. Stir in the cilantro or parsley. Remove from the heat and set aside while you cook the scallops.

    Cook the corn:
  4. Prepare the scallops:

    Rinse the scallops under cold running water. If the side muscle (the small, tough pieces of scallop that attached the scallop to its shell) is present, remove it with a sharp paring knife. Pat the scallops dry with paper towels and sprinkle with salt and pepper.

  5. Cook the scallops:

    In a large skillet (preferably cast-iron) over medium-high heat, heat the oil until very hot. Add the scallops without crowding them, and turn the heat to medium. Cook for about 5 minutes, or until they are golden brown on the bottom. Turn the scallops over and remove the pan from the heat.

    Let them rest for a few minutes to cook in the residual heat from the pan. They are done when they feel firm to the touch and have a slight almost frilly-looking separation on the edge of the scallop. Serve them with the browned side up.

    Cook the scallops:
  6. Serve the scallops:

    If necessary, reheat the corn over medium heat. Divide the corn evenly into shallow bowls. Place 3 to 4 scallops, browned side up, over the corn. Sprinkle the scallops with the lime juice and cilantro or parsley. Serve with lime wedges.

Seared Scallops With Brown Butter Caper Sauce

Seared Scallops With Brown Butter Caper Sauce - scallops recipe photo

Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Brown the butter:

    Cut up the butter into pieces (a tablespoon each or so) and place in a stainless steel saucepan. Melt the butter on medium heat. Allow the butter to foam up and recede. Watch carefully. After a few minutes, the milk solids will form and sink to the bottom.

    Once the milk solids begin to turn caramel-colored brown, the butter will have a lovely nutty aroma.

    Remove from heat and pour the browned butter into a separate bowl to stop the cooking. (Pay attention! If you wait too long, you'll have blackened butter, not browned butter.) Set aside.

    Brown the butter:
  2. Remove "foot" and pat dry scallops:

    Remove the "foot" of the scallop from each scallop. (The foot is a small tough piece of meat that attaches the scallop to the shell.) Pat dry the scallops.

    Remove
  3. Sear the scallops on both sides on high heat:

    Heat the oil in a cast iron pan or hard-anodized aluminum sauté pan on high heat.

    When the oil is shimmery hot, pat dry the scallops again and carefully place them in the pan, flat side down.

    You may need to work in batches so you don't crowd the pan.

    Once you've placed the scallops in the pan, do not move them. Allow them to sear.

    Once you can see that the edges of the scallops touching the pan have browned, use tongs to turn the scallops over and sear the other side. Depending on the size of the scallops and the heat of your burner, this should take 3 to 4 minutes per side.

    Once both sides are browned, remove the scallops to a warm plate, and turn off the burner.

    Sear the scallops on both sides on high heat:
  4. Deglaze pan with white wine:

    Pour out the remaining oil from the pan, leaving any browned bits in the pan. Add the white wine to the pan and return the pan to the burner on high heat.

    Let the wine boil and reduce until you have 2 tablespoons of liquid left in the pan.

  5. Add capers, lemon zest, brown butter:

    Then turn off the heat, add the capers, lemon zest, and brown butter to the pan. Swirl to combine.

    Add capers, lemon zest, brown butter:
  6. Serve scallops with sauce:

    Place scallops on serving plates and pour sauce over them. Serve immediately.

Brown Butter Scallops with Parmesan Risotto

Brown Butter Scallops with Parmesan Risotto - scallops recipe photo

Ingredients

Instructions

  1. For the Risotto: In a large non-stick skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the garlic or shallots and saute for a minute or two, until soft and fragrant. Add the arborio rice, stir to coat with butter. Add the white wine and enjoy the sizzles. Add the broth, 1/2 cup at a time, and simmer/stir after each addition until the rice is soft and creamy. I usually err on the side of more liquid to get a creamier texture. Add the parmesan and stir until incorporated. Salt + pepp to taste.

  2. For the Seared Scallops: Heat oil in nonstick skillet. Pat scallops dry (VERY DRY, as dry as possible), sprinkle with salt, and add to pan. They should sizzle (if not, you need a hotter pan.) Shake gently to prevent sticking. After 2-3 minutes, flip each scallop over. They should have a pretty golden brown exterior and an opaque inside. Transfer to a paper towel lined plate to absorb excess oil. Serve immediately.

  3. For the Sautéed Spinach: Heat the oil over medium low heat. Add the garlic, stir for a minute to get the flavor going. Add the spinach or kale and stir until wilted.

  4. For the Brown Butter: Put a few tablespoons of butter in a clean skillet over medium heat and stir it while watching it closely – when it starts to look golden and foamy, remove from heat, transfer to a heat-proof bowl to cool slightly, then drizzle over the risotto, scallops, and greens.

  5. Heat remaining 1/2 cup butter, 1/2 cup oil, 1 tablespoon basil, 1/2 teaspoon garlic, and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a small saucepan over medium heat until butter melts, 2 to 3 minutes.
