PAN SEARED SCALLOPS WITH TOMATO & BASIL WINE SAUCE

Steps:

• Rinse scallops well then lay out on paper towels to remove moisture.
• 1. Squirt the olive oil in a sauté pan. The hotter the pan, the better the sear on the scallops will be.
• 2. Place the scallops in the pan, making sure they aren't touching. Sear each side until golden brown, or about four to five minutes per side. When done, remove them to a plate and set aside.
• 3. Deglaze the pan with the wine and let it reduce, then add the tomatoes.
• 4. Sauté for 30 seconds, and then add the garlic and basil.
• 5. Cook for two minutes, and then stir in the butter.
• 6. Plate the scallops and add the sauce.

SEA SCALLOPS WITH GARLIC AND TOMATOES

Steps:

• Place the scallops in a bowl, and add the milk. Stir to coat, and let stand briefly.
• Place the flour in a flat dish. Add salt and pepper; blend well. Drain the scallops, and dredge them in the flour mixture. Place the flour-coated scallops in a large sieve. Shake to remove any excess flour. Scatter the scallops onto a sheet of foil or wax paper so that they do not touch, or they may stick together.
• Heat the olive oil in a saucepan. Add the garlic, tomatoes, salt and pepper. Add the vinegar, and bring to a sizzle. Simmer for 2 minutes.
• Heat the vegetable oil over high heat in a nonstick skillet large enough to hold the scallops in one layer. Add the scallops, and cook, stirring, until lightly browned, about 4 minutes. Spoon equal portions of the scallops onto warm plates, and pour some of the tomato sauce over each portion. Sprinkle each with an equal amount of chopped basil or parsley, and serve with noodles.
