Scallops Sauted With Garlic Recipes

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:

• Cut scallops into halves or quarters depending upon size. Dry well with paper towels.
• Roll scallops in flour.
• Heat oil and butter in a skillet, over moderate heat, and cook scallops for 3-5 minutes tossing to coat while cooking.
• Add garlic and mix well, shaking pan to turn scallops; add salt and pepper to taste.
• Add tomatoes and cook briefly until soft, then add parsley and toss scallops to coat.
• Serve with lemon wedges.

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:

• 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:

• Dry scallops gently with paper towel.
• Heat oil in medium pan.
• Add butter.
• While butter melts, dredge each scallop in flour on both sides.
• When butter is starting to foam, add scallops to pan.
• Cook until scallops are barely browned on both sides and starting to feel firm, about 1-2 minutes per side for the initial browning. (This will depend on the thickness of your scallops.
• When both sides are browned slightly, add garlic.
• Lower heat a little.
• Season with salt and pepper as desired, and cook about 2 minutes more.
• Stir or shake the pan so the garlic is all around the scallops.
• 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:

• Sprinkle scallops with salt and pepper.
• Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.
• Add 8 scallops; sauté 2 1/2 minutes on each side or until browned.
• Set aside, and keep warm. Repeat procedure with remaining 8 scallops.
• Wipe pan clean with a paper towel.
• Add butter to pan; reduce heat, and cook until butter melts.
• Stir in parsley and garlic, and cook 15 seconds. Return scallops to pan; toss to coat.

Steps:

• Prepare the sauce by tossing the garlic cloves with olive oil and place on a square of aluminum foil.
• Fold the foil to form a package and roast place in a preheated 350°F oven for 20 to 30 minutes.
• Allow the garlic to cool slightly, careful open package and transfer the garlic cloves to a medium saucepan.
• Stir in cider vinegar and bring to a simmer, mashing the cloves with the back of a spoon.
• As the vinegar evaporates, a paste will form, to the garlic paste stir in the heavy cream and simmer for about 10 minutes on low heat to blend flavors, adjust salt and pepper to taste.
• To prepare the scallops, rinse and dry with paper towels.
• Dust the top side of the scallops with paprika.
• In a non-stick skillet that has been sprayed lightly with olive oil, place the top side of the scallops down and sauté until crispy on top and lightly firm to the touch.
• Place scallops on serving plate and drizzle garlic sauce over.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375.
• Wipe scallops with damp paper towel. Mash garlic cloves, add to butter, and stir well to blend. Keep warm.
• Pour a little of the melted garlic sauce into the bottom of a baking dish, add the mushrooms and season with onion salt and black pepper. Place the scallops on top of the mushrooms. Reserve 1 tablespoon garlic sauce and drizzle the rest on scallops.
• Sprinkle with bread crumbs, parsley and reserved garlic sauce.
• Bake in preheated 375°F oven until the top is nicely browned and bubbly hot, for about 10 minutes.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Place scallops in a bowl and sprinkle with salt. Cover and let rest in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
• Combine 5 tablespoons warm butter, lemon juice, and garlic in a bowl; whisk until combined. Let sit at room temperature for 30 minutes.
• At the same time, remove scallops from the refrigerator and let come to room temperature, about 20 to 30 minutes.
• Melt 3 tablespoons butter in a nonstick pan over medium-high heat, making sure it does not smoke. Brush scallops with garlic mixture and add to the pan. Cook until the bottoms begin to sear and turn golden, about 2 minutes. Flip scallops, brush with garlic mixture, and cook another 2 minutes. Remove scallops from the heat and let them continue to cook while they rest, off the heat, for 5 more minutes. Plate and serve.

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.

Steps:

• Melt butter in a medium pan over medium heat. Add mushrooms, cumin, and pepper. Saute until mushrooms are lightly browned, about 5 minutes.
• Add onion and garlic; saute until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add scallops; cook and stir until opaque, about 3 minutes. Remove from heat.

Steps:

• In a large, nonstick skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Cook until the foam subsides and the butter solids turn a deep, nut brown, about 5 minutes. Remove the seeds from the preserved lemon and finely dice.
• Add the rosemary branches and chopped garlic to the butter and cook 30 seconds. Add the scallops, preserved lemon and a large pinch of salt. Lower the heat to medium-low. Cook, stirring, until scallops are just opaque, 2 to 4 minutes. Remove from the heat and let the scallops carry over off the heat for a few minutes.
• Season with additional salt, as needed, and pepper. Squeeze lemon juice over scallops and serve with chopped fresh herbs if you like.
