PAN-SEARED LEMON AND GARLIC SCALLOPS



Pan-Seared Lemon and Garlic Scallops image

Scallops have a reputation for being hard to cook correctly, but this recipe is really fast, easy, and oh so tasty. The key is high heat for the sear, a good nonstick pan, and clarified butter. Pairs well with risotto.

Categories     Seafood     Shellfish     Scallops

Time 1h20m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 6

12 medium sea scallops
1 teaspoon salt, or more to taste
5 tablespoons clarified butter (ghee), warm
2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 cloves garlic, minced
3 tablespoons clarified butter (ghee)

Steps:

  • Place scallops in a bowl and sprinkle with salt. Cover and let rest in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
  • Combine 5 tablespoons warm butter, lemon juice, and garlic in a bowl; whisk until combined. Let sit at room temperature for 30 minutes.
  • At the same time, remove scallops from the refrigerator and let come to room temperature, about 20 to 30 minutes.
  • Melt 3 tablespoons butter in a nonstick pan over medium-high heat, making sure it does not smoke. Brush scallops with garlic mixture and add to the pan. Cook until the bottoms begin to sear and turn golden, about 2 minutes. Flip scallops, brush with garlic mixture, and cook another 2 minutes. Remove scallops from the heat and let them continue to cook while they rest, off the heat, for 5 more minutes. Plate and serve.

BASIL PAN-SEARED SCALLOPS OVER PASTA



Basil Pan-Seared Scallops over Pasta image

This dish is so easy to make, but tastes like you slaved away in the kitchen. When purchasing the scallops, be sure to look for a subtle pink or creme color. Stark white scallops have been soaked in water to add extra weight. Other pastas such as rotini, shells, or penne can be substituted for the farfalle. Makes an excellent main course, or add spinach or asparagus to turn it into a meal in itself. My pookie likes to have this dish served with antipasto of buffalo mozzarella, artichoke hearts, and fire roasted tomatoes.

Time 35m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 (16 ounce) package farfalle (bow tie) pasta
24 scallops, rinsed and drained
¾ cup olive oil
¼ cup lemon juice
1 ½ teaspoons dried minced garlic
1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon ground black pepper
2 tablespoons dried basil
9 tablespoons whipped butter

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Cook pasta in boiling water for 8 to 10 minutes, or until al dente. Drain, rinse, and transfer to a large serving bowl.
  • Meanwhile, place scallops in a large bowl. In a small bowl, mix together 1/4 cup olive oil, lemon juice, 1 teaspoon garlic, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and the black pepper. Pour mixture over scallops. Arrange scallops in a single layer in a large baking dish or plate. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon dried basil over scallops so that only one side is sparsely coated with basil.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium-high, and melt one tablespoon of butter in the pan. Place 12 scallops basil-side down, and cook for about 3 to 4 minutes until dark golden brown. Turn scallops, and cook the other side. Cook the remaining 12 scallops the same way.
  • In a small saucepan, melt remaining butter with 1/2 cup olive oil, 1 tablespoon basil, 1/2 teaspoon garlic, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
  • Toss pasta with butter and olive oil mixture. Divide pasta onto plates, and top with scallops.
