Sauteed Scallops With Vegetables Recipes

Steps:

• Combine the water, wine, and salt in a saucepan; bring to a boil. Add the scallops; cover, reduce heat, and simmer for 3 to 4 minutes.
• Drain scallops, reserving 1/2 cup liquid. Set the scallops and liquid aside.
• Saute the mushrooms, green onions, and celery in butter in a large skillet until vegetables are tender.
• Add the snow peas, and saute an additional 1 to 2 minutes.
• Combine the reserved 1/2 cup scallop liquid, soy sauce, cornstarch, cracked pepper, lemon juice, and hot sauce; whisk together.
• Add the cornstarch mixture to the vegetable mixture, and cook until thickened and bubbly, stirring frequently. Stir in the reserved scallops and the pimento; cook until thoroughly heated.
• Serve immediately over rice.

Steps:

• In a medium size saucepan melt butter over medium-high heat. Add crushed garlic and whole sprigs of rosemary to the saucepan. Add scallops, cook for 2 minutes on each side (or until desired consistency). Remove the garlic and rosemary from pan. Serve.

Steps:

• Place a large sauté pan or skillet over medium-high heat, and add to it 3 tablespoons of the butter. When it has melted and started to foam, place the scallops in the pan in a single layer, and season with a pinch or two of salt.
• Cook scallops without moving until the bottoms are golden brown, approximately 2 to 3 minutes, then turn them over, add the wine and cook an additional 1 to 2 minutes.

Steps:

• Heat 1 tablespoon oil in heavy large skillet over medium heat. Add green onions, carrot and garlic and sauté until carrot is crisp-tender, about 3 minutes. Transfer mixture to plate. Heat remaining 3 tablespoons oil in same skillet over medium heat. Season scallops with salt and pepper. Add scallops to skillet and cook until golden, about 2 minutes per side. Return sautéed vegetable mixture to skillet. Add tomato, cilantro, lemon juice and vinegar. Simmer until scallops are just cooked through, stirring occasionally, about 3 minutes.

Steps:

• Choose a saute pan large enough to hold all of the scallops in one layer without overcrowding the pan or without them touching each other. Cook in batches if necessary. Heat the oil and 1 tablespoon of the butter until nearly smoking. Add the scallops and do not move or shake pan, but allow the scallops to brown well on one side before tossing the pan to flip them or gently turning them with a spatula to cook the second side.
• Remove the scallops from the pan and place on a warm serving platter. Return the pan in which the scallops had been cooked to the fire, add the remaining 2 tablespoons of sweet butter, and cook until the butter begins to turn a light brown color. When the butter has browned to a hazelnut color add the lemon juice and chopped parsley.
• Pour the classic lemon butter over the scallops, garnish with heart-shaped croutons and serve promptly.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Heat a medium saucepan for 3 minutes over medium heat. Hit the pan with a generous spray of nonstick cooking spray. Add your seafood. Sear the seafood for 3 minutes. Flip over and place the pan in the oven for 6 minutes.
• In another heated pan coated with cooking spray, add the broccoli and cauliflower and saute. Add the artichokes and continue to saute until warm. Deglaze the pan with the lemon juice and add your fresh thyme.
• Remove the seafood from the oven. Plate over the mesclun greens. Add the vegetables over the seafood.

Steps:

• Melt butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Stir in garlic, and cook for a few seconds until fragrant. Add scallops, and cook for several minutes on one side, then turn over, and continue cooking until firm and opaque.
• Remove scallops to a platter, then whisk salt, pepper, and lemon juice into butter. Pour sauce over scallops to serve.

Steps:

• Melt a knob of butter in a frying pan. Once sizzling, add the mushrooms and fry for just a min or two before adding the spinach. Cook on a high heat for about 1 min, allowing the leaves to wilt and soften. Drain the leaves and mushrooms in a sieve or small colander set over a bowl, pressing them gently in the sieve to release the juices (the juices will provide the base for the sauce, so don't discard them). Keep warm to one side.
• Heat the oil in a separate clean frying pan. When very hot, add the scallops. Sauté for a couple of mins without disturbing them at all, then add a knob of butter to the pan. Turn the scallops, season with salt and pepper, then baste with the sizzling butter. Continue to cook for a further couple of mins until the scallops are ready.
• While sautéing the scallops, return the saved spinach juices to the pan the spinach and mushrooms were cooked in, then whisk in the remaining knob of butter to create the sauce. Season with salt and pepper and a grating of nutmeg.
• Now finish in style: Arrange spinach and mushrooms on plates or in bowls, sit the scallops on top, then spoon the nutmeg spinach sauce around.

Steps:

• Dredge the scallops in flour. Heat the butter and oil in a large heavy skillet over high heat, and when it is sizzling, shake the excess flour from the scallops and scatter them in the hot pan. Keep the heat high, and turn and move the scallops around frequently, giving the pan a shake now and then. Total cooking time should not be more than 3 minutes-or 4 for really large pieces. Season the scallops lightly with salt and several grindings of the pepper mill, and remove them to a warm plate. Lower the heat to moderate, and toss the shallot into the pan. Stir it around for about 30 seconds, splash in the wine, and let it reduce slightly. Pour this sauce over the scallops, scraping up every bit of pan juice with a spatula. Sprinkle the parsley on top.
• Variation
• Sometimes I wrap a band of prosciutto around the circumference of each scallop and secure it with a toothpick. These can be broiled, or sautéed as above. The sharp saltiness of the prosciutto, along with the briny taste of the scallops, creates a striking combination of flavors.

Steps:

• Put the oil and butter in a large nonstick skillet and turn the heat to medium-high; begin to dredge the scallops lightly in the flour. When the butter foam subsides, add the scallops swiftly but not all at once. Turn them individually, as they brown, allowing about 2 minutes per side. Season with salt and pepper as they cook.
• Once you have turned all the scallops, add the garlic and lower the heat a bit. Stir or, even better, shake the pan gently so the garlic cooks a bit and is distributed among the scallops. Garnish and serve.
• A venerable tradition: In step 1, use only 1 tablespoon butter or oil; in it, sauté about 1/4 cup bacon or pancetta over medium heat until crisp, 5 to 10 minutes; halfway through the cooking time, add 1/4 cup minced shallots. Quarter the scallops; do not dredge them in flour. Stir them into the bacon/shallot mixture and cook, stirring occasionally, for a couple of minutes, until stark white. Season to taste (omit the garlic), garnish, and serve.
• You can finish either the main recipe or the variation this way: Transfer the cooked scallops to a warm platter and turn the heat to high. Add 1 cup dry white wine (a really good one will not be wasted here) and cook, stirring and scraping the pan with a wooden spoon, until the wine is reduced by more than half and is syrupy and thick. Pour this over the cooked scallops, garnish, and serve.
