Spiced Scallops With Balsamic Braised Red Cabbage Recipes

Steps:

• Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a 12-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add cabbage, bay leaves, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper and toss to coat.
• Stir in 1/2 cup water and 2 tablespoon vinegar and simmer, covered, stirring occasionally, until cabbage is tender, 10 to 15 minutes. Transfer to a platter and keep warm, covered.
• Stir together spices, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Pat scallops dry and season both sides with spice mixture.
• Wipe out skillet, then heat remaining tablespoon butter over medium-high heat until foam subsides. Sauté scallops, turning once, until golden brown and just cooked through, about 5 minutes total. Add to cabbage.
• Add remaining 1/4 cup water and tablespoon vinegar to skillet and boil, stirring, until slightly thickened, 1 to 2 minutes. Pour over scallops and cabbage.

Steps:

• Brown 1/3 cup diced pancetta in olive oil in a pot over medium-high heat until crisp, 2 to 4 minutes. Add 1 pound sliced red cabbage, 1 sliced red onion, 1/2 teaspoon each fennel seeds and kosher salt and a few grinds of pepper. Cook, stirring, 5 minutes. Add 1 cup water, 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar and 1 tablespoon sugar. Cover and cook over medium heat, stirring, until tender, 15 minutes. Season with salt and pepper and top with parsley.

Steps:

• Heat some butter in a non-stick skillet. Lightly dust the scallops with flour on one side only; shake off excess. When hot, add the scallops, floured side down, and saute, over moderate high heat, without moving for 2 to 3 minutes or until one side develops a crust. Put a lid on the scallops to help finish steaming the top or, if the heat is high enough, the scallops will cook from the bottom through to the top. Lightly season with salt and pepper.
• Heat the olive oil in a skillet. When hot add the cabbage and garlic and saute for a few minutes just long enough to wilt it down. (You may need to add a touch of water to help it wilt down.) Remove from heat and add white wine to taste. Season with salt and pepper. To serve, pile some cabbage in the center of a plate and top the plate with scallops, putting the browned side up. Garnish with parsley if you wish.

Steps:

• Cook the bacon in a large skillet over a medium heat until crisp. Add the olive oil to the pan along with the onion and garlic. Cook until the onion has softened then stir in the garlic, fennel seed, thyme leaves, pear and cabbage.
• Saute for 10 minutes until the cabbage is slightly softened. Add in the remaining ingredients and cover with a lid and turn down to low heat and cook for 40 minutes.
• Uncover and serve warm.

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large pan. Add the onions and fry, stirring every now and then, for about 10 mins, until they start to caramelise. Stir in the cloves, then add the cabbage and continue cooking, stirring more frequently this time, until the cabbage starts to soften.
• Pour in the stock, add the vinegar and sugar, then cover and cook for 10 mins.
• Stir in the cranberries and cook for 10 mins more. Cool and keep in the fridge for up to 4 days, or freeze for 1 month. Thaw in the fridge overnight. Reheat until very hot before serving.
