Broiled Scallops Persillade Recipes

Steps:

• Turn broiler on.
• Rinse scallop and place in a shallow baking pan. Sprinkle with garlic salt, melted butter or margarine and lemon juice.
• Broil 6 to 8 minutes or until scallops start to turn golden. Remove from oven and serve with extra melted butter or margarine on the side for dipping.

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.

Steps:

• Rinse scallops to rid them of any sand. With a paring knife, remove the small hard "foot" from the edge of each scallop. Blot scallops dry with paper towels. Season with salt and pepper.
• Put olive oil in wide cast-iron pan over medium-high heat. When oil is hot and nearly smoking, place scallops in pan in one layer. Leave scallops until well browned on one side, 2 to 3 minutes, then turn and cook for 1 minute on other side. Remove scallops to a plate, browned side up.
• Wipe pan clean with paper towels and return to stove. Turn down heat slightly. Add butter and swirl pan to melt. Add garlic and let it bloom - that is, cook without browning for 30 seconds. Return scallops to pan, browned side up, and gently heat through. Sprinkle with 3 tablespoons parsley and turn off heat. Put 2 scallops per person in scallop shells or small shallow bowls.
• Tilt pan and spoon butter sauce evenly over each serving. Sprinkle with remaining 1 tablespoon parsley. Serve immediately with lemon wedges.
