Scallop Pan Roast Recipes

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.

CLAM, SHRIMP, & SCALLOP PAN ROAST

Steps:

• Give the clams a good scrubbing, discarding any with cracked or open shells. Set aside. Heat the oil over medium-high in a pan that you can cover later. Throw in the garlic and cook for 2 minutes. Pour in the clam juice, wine, and Mutha Sauce. When the mixture is bubbling, add the clams. Cover and cook til the clams open, 3 to 5 minutes. Pull out the clams as they open, and keep them warm. (Pitch any clams that don't open.)
• Boil and reduce the pan juices over high heat for about 8 minutes. Sprinkle in the red pepper and season up the sauce with Worcestershire.
• Toss in the shrimp and scallops. Simmer til they're cooked and have just turned opaque, about 4 minutes. Swirl in the cream and basil. Return the clams to the pan, and gently stir together all the shellfish. Sprinkle with parsley and serve steaming hot.

QUICK PAN-SEARED SCALLOPS

Steps:

• Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add shallot; cook and stir until lightly browned, 1 to 2 minutes. Pour in lemon juice and cook until evaporated, scraping the bottom of the skillet with a wooden spoon to release any browned bits, about 3 minutes.
• Place scallops 1/2 inch apart in the skillet. Cook until browned on the bottom, about 1 minute. Flip and continue cooking until the second side is deeply browned, about 1 minute more.
• Transfer scallops to a serving plate; season with salt and pepper. Garnish with parsley.

CREAMY PAN-ROASTED SCALLOPS WITH FRESH TOMATOES

Steps:

• Heat a large skillet over medium-high and add the butter, letting it melt. Add shallots, celery seeds and a pinch each salt and pepper, and cook until the shallots are tender and opaque, about 3 to 5 minutes. Stir in tomatoes. Bring to a simmer, stirring occasionally, and cook until jammy, 9 to 13 minutes.
• Increase heat to medium-high and stir in vermouth. Cook until about a third of the liquid evaporates, about 5 minutes. Add Worcestershire and cream, and simmer, reducing heat if needed and stirring occasionally, until sauce thickens enough to coat a spoon, 5 to 7 minutes.
• Season scallops with salt and pepper, and add to the pan. Cook, uncovered, until scallops are just cooked through and opaque, 3 to 6 minutes, depending on the size of the scallops. Stir in chives and celery leaves. Serve immediately, garnished with more chives and celery leaves.
