Scallops In Beurre Blanc Sauce Recipe 475

Steps:

• 1. Gently rinse the scallops and pat them dry with paper towels. 2. Add chardonnay, white wine vinegar and shallots in a saucepan. Bring to a simmer and cook till about 1 tbsp of liquid remains. In a low heat, rapidly whisk in cold butter, 1 to 2 pieces at a time. 3. When all of the butter has been incorporated, season with salt and white pepper. The sauce should be light and creamy. Strain out the shallots and set it aside. 4. Heat olive oil in a frying pan. Season the scallops with salt and place them in the pan when it is really hot. Depending on the thickness of the scallops, fry for about 1 to 1 1/2 minutes until golden at the edges on each side. 5. Spoon Beurre Blanc sauce onto warm plates, followed by the scallops. Garnish with black pepper and microgreens. Carefully spoon salmon roe onto each scallops. Bon appetit!

Steps:

• Mix shallot, fennel fronds, cherry tomatoes, olive oil and vinegar in a small bowl and set aside.
• Pat scallops dry on both sides with a paper towel; they must be extremely dry. Sprinkle one side with kosher salt and a small grind of black pepper.
• Heat oil in a good-quality, nonstick frying pan over medium-high heat. When oil is very hot and begins to shimmer and release a slight amount of smoke, place scallops in the pan in a single layer and reduce heat to medium. (Depending on the size of the pan, scallops may have to be cooked in two batches.) Let cook undisturbed for approximately 2 minutes or until bottoms begin to brown and caramelize. Flip scallops, cook for another minute and then remove to a warm plate.
• Turn heat back to medium-high and add wine, lemon juice and hot sauce, stirring to remove browned bits on the bottom of the pan. Reduce for a minute or 2, then turn heat to low. Whisk in butter, a tablespoon at a time, until sauce becomes emulsified and glossy. Stir in any juices from the scallops, then remove from heat.
• To serve, spoon sauce onto four individual plates or a platter, place scallops on sauce and top each with a spoonful of salsa.

Steps:

• In large skillet, melt 1 tablespoon of the butter over medium-high heat. Cook scallops in butter about 5 minutes, turning once, until golden brown on outside and white and opaque inside. Remove scallops to serving plate; cover to keep warm.
• Add garlic, shallot, wine and vinegar to skillet, stirring to loosen brown particles. Cook until liquid is reduced to less than half. Reduce heat to low; add 4 tablespoons butter. Cook and stir until butter is melted. Add remaining 3 tablespoons butter; cook and stir until sauce is thickened and creamy.
• Press sauce through fine strainer; discard solids. Pour sauce over scallops. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Marinate scallops in vermouth at least 15 minutes (or up to an hour); In a medium saucepan large enough to hold a small heavy saucepan, boil some water and set aside.
• In that small heavy saucepan, simmer shallot in vinegar and wine until liquid is reduced to approximately 1T; Remove from heat and add water; Reduce heat to low and cook, adding 6T butter 1T at a time; whisking in each new piece before the previous one has melted completely (occasionally lift pan from heat to cool mixture); Sauce should never liquify, it should be similar to a thin hollandaise; remove from heat and whisk in herbs, and salt and pepper to taste; Cover and keep warm in pan of hot water.
• Drain scallops and pat dry.
• Season scallops with salt and pepper; Heat 1 T butter and 1 T olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over moderate heat, until foam subsides; saute half of the scallops, turning once until just cooked through (approx 4 minutes total); wipe out skillet and saute the other half of the scallops in remaining butter/olive oil mixture.
