Provided by Alton Brown

Categories     main-dish

Time 8m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 to 1 1/4 pounds dry sea scallops, approximately 16
2 teaspoons unsalted butter
2 teaspoons olive oil
Kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Remove the small side muscle from the scallops, rinse with cold water and thoroughly pat dry.
  • Add the butter and oil to a 12 to 14-inch saute pan on high heat. Salt and pepper the scallops. Once the fat begins to smoke, gently add the scallops, making sure they are not touching each other. Sear the scallops for 1 1/2 minutes on each side. The scallops should have a 1/4-inch golden crust on each side while still being translucent in the center. Serve immediately.

SAUTéED SCALLOPS



Sautéed Scallops image

Sea scallops and bay scallops differ in size and sweetness. They also cook a little differently. I love a good hard sear on a sea scallop, a little crust, and a splash of wine in the butter at the end to provide a silky acidity against the sweet of the meat. For the tiny, sweet bay scallop, though, I prefer a gentle butter bath. Whichever you cook, be very careful not to overcook. Indeed, there is almost no such thing as an undercooked scallop.

Categories     seafood, main course

Time 10m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

3 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 pound sea scallops, patted dry
Kosher salt, to taste
1 tablespoon dry white vermouth or white wine
1 tablespoon finely chopped parsley, for garnish

Steps:

  • Place a large sauté pan or skillet over medium-high heat, and add to it 3 tablespoons of the butter. When it has melted and started to foam, place the scallops in the pan in a single layer, and season with a pinch or two of salt.
  • Cook scallops without moving until the bottoms are golden brown, approximately 2 to 3 minutes, then turn them over, add the wine and cook an additional 1 to 2 minutes.

  • Remove catch muscle if needed. Rinse scallops under cold water and thoroughly pat dry with paper towels or a clean kitchen towel. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Heat grapeseed oil in a large stainless steel, non-stick, or cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. Test the pan’s heat by sprinkling a tiny bit of water in it—if the water evaporates on contact, the pan is ready.
  • Place scallops in the pan in a single layer, leaving about an inch of space between each one and working in batches if necessary. The first scallop should sizzle on contact with the pan; if not, wait a few seconds for the pan to get hot before adding the rest.
  • Cook scallops until golden brown on the bottom, about 2 minutes, then flip using tongs. (If the scallop doesn’t release easily, give it a few extra seconds in the pan.) Add butter, and swirl to coat scallops.
