Glazed Sea Scallops With Wilted Napa Cabbage Coleslaw Recipes

SCALLOPS WITH CABBAGE AND CAPERS

Steps:

• Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sprinkle in the sugar and cook until it just turns golden.
• Add the cabbage and 1/2 teaspoon salt, cover and cook until wilted, about 5 minutes. Add the broth and continue cooking, covered, until crisp-tender, another 15 minutes. Preheat the broiler to high.
• Transfer the cabbage to a flameproof casserole dish. Wipe out the skillet, then add the remaining 6 tablespoons butter and melt over medium heat. Brush the scallops with some of the butter and season with salt and pepper; arrange in a single layer over the cabbage in the casserole dish and broil until firm, 5 to 7 minutes.
• Meanwhile, continue cooking the butter over low heat, swirling the pan occasionally, until toasted and fragrant, 5 minutes. Add the capers, raisins and vinegar (be careful - the butter may foam and bubble); swirl the pan until the raisins are plump. Season with salt and pepper.
• Divide the scallops and cabbage among plates. Add the parsley to the sauce and spoon over the scallops.

BALSAMIC-GLAZED SEA SCALLOPS

Steps:

• Pat scallops thoroughly with a paper towel to remove excess moisture and ensure a good sear. Combine seafood seasoning, salt, and pepper and use to lightly season both sides of the scallops.
• Heat butter and olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add scallops to the skillet, being careful not to crowd. Cook until golden brown and a crust starts to form, about 3 minutes per side. Cook in batches if necessary to avoid steaming the scallops and be careful not to overcook. Remove from the skillet and cover to keep warm.
• Add white wine, balsamic vinegar, and Dijon mustard to the skillet and cook over medium heat, stirring constantly to scrape up the browned bits from the bottom. Cook until glaze is slightly thick and syrupy, 3 to 4 minutes.
• Move scallops to a serving plate, drizzle glaze on top, and garnish with chopped tarragon.

• rebecca's notes
• You may be wondering how to take on cabbage, the bocce ball of vegetables. Place the cabbage on a cutting board with the stem side down. Using a sharp chef's knife, cut the cabbage in half from top to bottom. Use the tip of your knife to remove the core. To shred cabbage by hand, hold the cabbage on the cutting board at an angle and give it a shave by making a thin slice down the flat (cut) side of the cabbage.
• storage
• Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3 to 5 days.
