Scallops In Tomato Sauce Recipes

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.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of well-salted water (2 heaping tablespoons kosher salt to about 7 quarts water) to a boil. Add the pasta and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Reserve 1 1/2 cups pasta cooking water, then drain pasta.
• Wipe out the pot and heat 2 tablespoons olive oil over medium. Add the shallots and cook until they begin to soften, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the tomatoes and cook, stirring occasionally, until they start to burst, 5 to 7 minutes. Add about 1/3 cup reserved pasta water, and press the tomatoes gently with the back of a spatula or wooden spoon to get them nice and jammy. Stir in the garlic and red-pepper flakes, if using, and cook, allowing the sauce to simmer, 1 to 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper; set aside.
• Season the scallops well on both sides with salt and pepper. In a 12-inch skillet, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil over high. When the oil shimmers, add the scallops, working in batches to avoid crowding the pan, and cook until golden brown and crisp, flipping once, 1 to 2 minutes per side.
• Add the pasta, 1 1/2 cups herbs and 1/4 cup reserved pasta water to the pot with the tomatoes and toss to coat, adding additional pasta water if needed. Divide the pasta among shallow bowls and top with scallops. Garnish with additional herbs and a drizzle of olive oil, if desired.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook as the label directs.
• Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Add the garlic and red pepper flakes and cook, stirring, until the garlic softens, about 1 minute. Add the tomatoes, parmesan rind, 1/2 cup water and half of the basil. Bring the sauce to a boil, then stir and reduce the heat to medium low; simmer 15 minutes. Season with salt.
• Increase the heat under the sauce to medium high, add the scallops and cook, stirring occasionally, until opaque, about 5 minutes. Remove the parmesan rind, add the remaining basil and season with salt and more red pepper flakes.
• Drain the pasta and add to the skillet with the sauce; toss. Divide the pasta among bowls, drizzle with olive oil and top with more basil.

Steps:

• Heat a large (12-inch) skillet over medium-low and add the butter to melt. Add the shallots and cook, stirring occasionally, for 3 to 5 minutes, until tender but not browned. Add the garlic and cook for 30 seconds to 1 minute, until fragrant.
• Add the wine and cook until about half the liquid has evaporated.
• Add the tomatoes, 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper and cook over medium-heat, stirring occasionally, for 10 to 12 minutes, until the tomatoes have released their juices and almost completely collapsed. Transfer the tomato mixture to a small dish (use a rubber spatula to get every last bit of the sauce!), then carefully wipe out the pan with a damp paper towel.
• Pat the scallops dry. Add the grapeseed oil to the skillet and turn the heat to medium-high. When the oil is very hot, add half the scallops, spacing them evenly in the pan, and season with kosher salt. Cook without moving for 2 to 3 minutes, until golden brown on the bottom. Flip and cook for 1 more minute. Don't overcook! Transfer the scallops to a plate and repeat with the remaining scallops, adding more oil if necessary.
• Drain any remaining oil and take the skillet off the heat. Return the tomatoes and their juices to the skillet and squeeze in 1 tablespoon lemon juice. Return the scallops to the skillet, nestling them into the tomatoes. Top with the zest of both lemon halves, julienned basil and mint, and a generous sprinkle of coarse sea salt, and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Make the sauce: Add all ingredients to a bowl.
• Let it sit at room temperature for 1 hour, then start the scallops.
• Dredge the scallops in flour mixed with salt and pepper, shaking off excess.
• Heat olive oil in a pan.
• Add scallops and sauté 2-3 minutes.
• Turn over and cook 3 minutes more until browned.
• To serve, place 2 romaine leaves on a plate.
• Top lettuce with 4-5 tablespoons of sauce.
• Add 3 scallops to each plate and garnish with a lemon wedge and parsley.

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.

Steps:

• Shell scallops.
• Slice each one in half horizontally and marinate the slices with half of the lemon juice and grated zest for 10-15 minutes.
• Heat oil on low and cook shallot or onion until tender.
• Add the tomatoes, salt and pepper, thyme, bayleaf and garlic.
• Cover and simmer mixture for 10 minutes.
• Remove lid and increase heat to high, to reduce the liquid quantity to half.
• Remove sprig of thyme and bay leaf.
• Press the sauce through a sieve into a frying pan.
• Bring the tomato sauce back to a simmer.
• Remove scallops from marinade.
• Place on a paper towel to remove excess marinade.
• Add the zest of a lemon and the scallops to the sauce.
• Gently poach them for 2 minutes, being careful not to allow the sauce to boil.
