Scallops With Shallots Recipes

AWESOME BAKED SEA SCALLOPS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
• Place scallops, melted butter, garlic, and shallots in a bowl. Season with nutmeg, salt, and pepper. Stir gently to combine. Transfer to a casserole dish.
• In a separate bowl, combine bread crumbs and olive oil. Sprinkle on top of scallops.
• Bake in preheated oven until crumbs are brown and scallops are done, about 11 to 14 minutes. Top with parsley, and serve with lemon wedges on the side.

GINGER SCALLOPS

Steps:

• In a medium skillet saute the green onions in 2 tablespoons of the butter. Stir in the carrots and cook for 30 seconds. Stir in the ginger and the wine. Once hot add the cream, salt and pepper. Cook, stirring frequently, over high heat until the sauce is reduced by half.
• Stir in the scallops and cook for 1 minute. Add the remaining butter and stir until melted. Serve.

SCALLOPS PROVENCAL

Steps:

• 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.

PESTO SALMON AND SEA SCALLOPS WITH SHALLOT SAUCE

Steps:

• Brush the pesto on top of each salmon fillet. Heat the oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Cook salmon and scallops, after about 3 minutes turn over scallops, cook the other side for another 3 minutes. And salmon is cooked at the same time. Do not burn. Meanwhile in another small sauce pan, heat butter or oil over medium, cook shallots, stirring often, about 5 minutes. Add vinegar and cook for another 2 minutes, then add cream and cook for another 1 minute. Divide sauce onto 4 plates evenly. Arrange each salmon fillet and two scallops on top of shallot sauce. Serve warm.

SAUTEED SEA SCALLOPS WITH SHALLOTS AND TOMATOES

Steps:

• Cut in half each scallop crosswise if too large. Set them aside.
• Drop the tomatoes into boiling water for 12 seconds to loosen the skin. Remove the skins and halve them to remove the seeds. Cut the tomatoes into small cubes.
• Melt the butter in a large non-stick skillet over high heat. Add the scallops, salt and pepper. Saute the scallops, shaking the skillet and stirring so that they cook evenly, about 4 minutes.
• Add the shallots, tomatoes, lemon juice, Tabasco and cook and stir over high heat for 2 minutes. Sprinkle the coriander over all and serve immediately.

SCALLOPS WITH SHALLOTS

Steps:

• Sprinkle scallops with salt and pepper. Dredge in flour to coat well and shake off excess.
• Heat 2 tablespoons oil and 2 tablespoons butter in a heavy skillet large enough to hold scallops in one layer without crowding. Or, to prevent crowding, cook half a batch of scallops at a time, adding a little more oil and butter as necessary.
• When oil and butter are quite hot, add scallops and cook, shaking skillet and stirring, until scallops are neatly browned on all sides, about 5 minutes. Add zucchini, tomato and shallots. Stir, and add lemon juice. Cook, stirring, about 15 seconds and serve. Do not overcook.

SEA SCALLOPS OVER SHALLOT-HERB PASTA

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. Add pasta and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Meanwhile, place shallots on a cutting board and sprinkle with 1 teaspoon salt. Using the side of a knife, crush into a paste. Transfer to a medium bowl and whisk in 6 tablespoons oil and lemon juice. Add herbs and fennel fronds; mix well. Season with salt and pepper. Drain pasta in a colander and return to pot. Stir in herb sauce; cover to keep warm.
• Heat grill to medium-high. Toss fennel slices with 1 1/2 teaspoons oil; season with salt and pepper. Toss scallops with remaining 2 tablespoons oil; season with salt and pepper and thread onto skewers (presoaked for 30 minutes, if wooden), if using.
• Lightly brush grates with oil. Place fennel slices in a grill basket and grill until just wilted and starting to brown, about 5 minutes. Grill scallops, turning halfway through, until golden and just cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes total. Serve scallops and fennel over pasta.

VENISON SCALLOPS WITH CARAMELIZED SHALLOTS

Steps:

• Pull the grapefruit apart into segments. Using the tip of a small, sharp knife, loosen the white membrane surrounding each segment and pull it away, trying not to pierce any of the little juice pods. Break up the segments into juice pods and set them aside.
• Trim the venison of any tendons or cartilage and slice across the grain into 1/2 inch slices. Place each one between 2 layers of plastic wrap and flatten by pounding with the flat side of a mallet until just over 1/4 inch thick. Season generously with salt and pepper. Preheat an oven to the lowest heat and place a heat proof platter inside.
• In a large, heavy skillet heat the olive oil over high heat (you may need to do this in batches). Quickly sear the venison scallops for about 1 minute on each side, then reduce the heat and cook for 1 minute more, until done to your liking (if the venison is cooked beyond the medium rare stage, it will be tough.) Transfer the scallops to the platter in the oven and cover loosely with a piece of aluminum foil.
• Wipe the skillet clean and, over medium heat, melt 3 tablespoons of the butter. Add the shallots and cook for 2 to 3 minutes, or until softened. Add the gin and simmer until the pan is almost dry. Add the juniper berries, venison or beef stock, salt, and cracked pepper. Increase the heat to high and simmer until the liquid has reduced by half. Add the remaining pieces of cold butter, remove the pan from the heat, and whisk until the sauce is emulsified. Taste for seasoning and stir in the grapefruit pieces. Place one or 2 venison scallops on each plate and spoon some of the sauce over the top. Serve at once.

SCALLOPS WITH CAPER PAN SAUCE RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Season the scallops on both sides with salt and pepper.
• In a large skillet, melt together 1 tablespoon butter and the olive oil over high heat. When the butter has melted, add the scallops to the pan and sear, flipping once halfway through, until golden brown on both sides and nearly opaque all the way through, 3-4 minutes total. Divide the scallops between 2 plates and return the skillet to medium-high heat.
• Melt 2 tablespoons butter in the skillet. Add the shallots and garlic. Cook, stirring, until softened and lightly browned, about 2 minutes.
• Stir in the capers and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Pour in the wine and cook, stirring, until slightly reduced, about 3 minutes.
• Remove the skillet from the heat and add the remaining tablespoon of butter, swirling the pan until it melts into the sauce. Season the sauce with salt and pepper, then spoon it over the scallops. Serve hot.
• Enjoy!
