Steps:
- In a large sauté pan over medium heat, add the butter and cook, tilting the pan frequently, until butter has lightly browned. It should smell nutty and have amber bits on the bottom of the pan.
- Add the olive oil and crushed red pepper flakes sauté for 1 minute. The add in the garlic and cook, stirring frequently, for another minute, or until garlic is fragrant.
- Add the cherry tomatoes and cook, stirring occasionally, until they're soft and blistering, but still hold their shape, about 8 minutes.
- Stir in the olives and capers and cook for 2 minutes, stirring frequently.
- Add in the white wine, stir, and allow the mixture to come to a gentle simmer.
- Stir in the basil, lemon juice, and salt, and cook for 2 minutes. Pour over scallops and serve warm!
- Remove the tiny side muscle from the scallops (if they have one). Rinse scallops with cold water and pat dry with a few sheets of paper towels. You want to make sure you get as much moisture out of them as possible. Set aside on a paper towel.
- Add the butter and oil to a large sauté pan over high heat.
- While the pan heats up, lightly salt and pepper the scallops.
- Once the pan begins to lightly smoke, gently add the scallops into the pan, making sure they are not touching.
- Sear scallops for about 1 and 1/2 minutes, then gently flip and cook for another 1 and 1/2 minutes, or until both sides are golden brown. Don't touch them at all while they're searing.
- Tops with sauce, and serve warm! Preferably over pasta or rice.
SEARED SEA SCALLOPS WITH FRIED ONIONS
Steps:
- Soak capers in water to cover for 10 minutes. Rinse under cold running water and pat dry. Slice onion in rings one-fourth-inch thick. Separate rings.
- Heat enough peanut or vegetable oil to come one-fourth of the way up the side of a deep fryer. Lightly dredge the onions in the flour and place in a frying basket. Deep-fry until golden. Drain on paper towels. Dredge the capers with the flour, deep fry and remove with a slotted spoon when golden. Drain on paper towels.
- Heat a large nonstick skillet until hot. Season scallops with salt and pepper and saute them in two teaspoons olive oil in one layer over high heat, turning once, until seared and opaque, about two minutes each side.
- To assemble the salad, arrange the tomatoes on four plates. Place the scallops on top. Combine the quarter-cup olive oil, garlic and vinegar and sprinkle lightly over the scallops. Season with pepper and garnish with the onion rings, capers and basil leaves.
