Scallops And Wild Rice Recipes

Steps:

• Assemble and prepare all ingredients
• In a 5-quart casserole, melt butter, cook onion until translucent. Remove and reserve.
• In casserole, heat oil and cook rice until it is well coated and begins to turn golden. Add reserved onion, parsley, and seasonings. Cover.
• In a saucepan, heat wine with thyme and bay leaf. Add scallops and enough boiling water to cover. Reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes. Remove and reserve scallops; strain and reserve broth.
• Add 2 cups of broth to rice mixture in casserole; if necessary, add more boiling water to have 2 cups. Stir once, cover, bake at 350 F for 20 minutes.
• Stir in scallops, cover, and bake for an additional 10 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil. Peel the carrots, leaving 1/2-inch of tops attached, and cut them in half. Blanch the carrots in the water for 1 minute. Set aside.
• Place the Black Rice in a pot in the oven to heat it up.
• Heat a large heavy-bottomed saute pan over medium-high heat. Season the scallops on all sides with 1 tablespoon kosher salt and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Pour the oil into the pan and let it heat for 30 seconds. Place the scallops in the pan on their flat round sides. Cook them for 3 to 4 minutes or until they are nicely caramelized. Turn them over and lower the heat. The scallops should be just barely cooked through.
• Meanwhile, heat a medium-sized heavy-bottomed saute pan over medium heat.Add the butter and then the shallots and blanched carrots. Season the shallots and carrots with salt and pepper and cook gently for about 2 minutes without getting any color on the carrots.
• Add the peas and then the pea shoots to the pan with the carrots, season with additional salt and pepper, and cook for 1 to 2 minutes until the peas are just cooked and the pea shoots have just wilted. Season the vegetables with a squeeze of the lemon. Plate the hot black rice at the center of 6 large plates. Scatter the vegetables over the rice. Place 3 scallops on top of the rice on each plate. Spoon the Tangerine Vinaigrette over the scallops and serve immediately.
• Heat the olive oil over medium heat in a medium saucepot. Add the black rice and toast slightly, stirring constantly for about 1 minute. Add the diced shallots and bay leaf and stir for 1 minute more. Add the water and salt. Simmer for about 45 minutes or until the rice is tender but slightly al dente. You will see the water turn a beautiful purple color. The idea is for the liquid to cook down to form a "sauce" which will coat the rice. If the water cooks away before the rice is done, add a little more water at a time. Ideally there will be no water to drain off. When the rice is done, pour it onto a sheet pan to cool.
• Section the tangerines into "supremes" (sections without the pith), and reserve the remainder of the tangerines. Set supremes aside. Squeeze the juice from the remainder of the tangerines and reserve.
• Place the shallots in a small bowl with the vinegar, 2 tablespoons of the tangerine juice, salt, and ginger. Let the mixture macerate for 5 minutes. Whisk in the honey and then the olive oil. Taste for seasoning and adjust. Stir in the reserved tangerine segments and parsley.

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the scallion whites and jalapeno and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 3 minutes. Add 1 1/2 cups water, the rice, bay leaf and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Increase the heat to medium high and bring to a simmer. Reduce the heat to low; stir, then cover and simmer until the rice is tender and the water is absorbed, 15 to 18 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the greens. Cover and set aside.
• Season the scallops with salt and sprinkle one side with the Cajun seasoning. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the vegetable oil, then the scallops, spice-side down; cook until browned and crisp, about 3 minutes. Flip and cook until just cooked through, about 1 minute.
• Stir the parsley and scallion greens into the rice and season with salt. Serve with the scallops and lemon wedges.

Steps:

• Cook rice according to package. Set aside. Combine buter, lemon juice and celery salt in a large skillet. Bring to a boil. Add scallops. Cook over high heat, stirring constantly, until scallops are done - about 6 - 8 minutes. Serve over cooked rice.

Steps:

• Place a large, deep skillet over medium-high heat and drizzle with a 2-count of oil. When the oil is hot, sprinkle the scallops with salt and pepper and brown well on both sides, about 2 minutes. Remove to a plate and cover to keep warm while you make the risotto.
• Reduce the heat to medium. Drizzle in another 2-count of olive oil. Add the onion and garlic and cook, stirring, for 5 minutes until soft. Toss in the mushrooms and herbs and cook until the mushrooms lose their liquid and are lightly browned, about 10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Add the rice and stir 2 minutes to coat with the oil; the grains will turn opaque. Season again. Stir in the wine and cook 1 minute to evaporate the alcohol.
• Now pour in 1 cup of the warm stock and stir with a wooden spoon until the rice has absorbed all of the liquid. Add another cup of stock. Continue in this way, stirring constantly and adding the stock 1 cup at a time, allowing the rice to absorb the liquid before adding more. (You may not need all of the stock; the risotto is done when it is slightly firm but creamy.) Fold in the scallops with the last cup of stock to warm them up. When the risotto is cooked, fold in the butter and cheese, and drizzle with a little more olive oil. Serve hot. Garnish with parsley.

Steps:

• Into a bowl, mix together ginger, soy sauce, chili sauce, ketchup, brown sugar, garlic salt and 1/3 cup clam juice, until smooth. Reserve. Preheat a wok with 2 tablespoons of the oil. Coat scallops with cornstarch and add to the wok. Stir-fry scallops for approximately 1 minute and sprinkle with salt and pepper, to taste. Stir in reserved ginger mixture cook for 1 to 2 minutes more. Remove scallops from sauce arrange on a serving dish. Reserve the sauce separately.
• Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon oil in the wok and add the carrot sticks, sweet pepper strips, broccoli florets and chopped onions for 4 to 6 minutes or until brown. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Keep warm, in the wok.
• In another wok or deep pan, deep-fry rice noodles in 2 cups hot oil, for 3 minutes. Drain noodles. Arrange noodles in a bowl or on a plate, top with cooked vegetables and finish with scallops. If desired, mix a little more clam juice to the sauce, before pouring over the scallops and noodles. Serve with lemon slices.

Steps:

• Melt butter in large skillet over medium-high heat. Sprinkle scallops with salt and pepper. Add to skillet; sauté until just opaque in center, about 5 minutes. Using slotted spoon, transfer scallops to bowl.
• Reduce heat to medium. Add mushrooms, 1/2 cup green onions and cayenne to skillet. Sauté until mushrooms are tender and brown, about 6 minutes. Sprinkle flour into skillet; stir 30 seconds. Add clam juice and cream; simmer until sauce thickens enough to coat spoon, stirring occasionally, about 10 minutes. Add scallops. Stir until heated through, about 1 minute. Season with salt and pepper.
