Tuna And Scallops With A Lime Butter Reduction Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400 degrees. Wash sweet potatoes and wrap them tightly in foil. Roast until tender, 45 minutes to 1 hour. (If you are using larger sweet potatoes, they may require 15 minutes more in the oven.)
• Using a paring knife, remove the small hard "foot" from the edge of each scallop. Pat scallops dry and season on both sides with salt and pepper.
• Put on a medium pot of salted water to boil for the greens.
• Meanwhile, make the ginger butter: Combine butter, ginger, chile and lime zest and juice and stir together until well incorporated. Season with salt to taste. Set aside.
• Take a cast-iron skillet large enough to hold the scallops without crowding and place over medium-high heat. Add a film of olive oil. When the oil is nearly smoking, add the scallops in one layer and let them sizzle. Reduce heat to medium and continue to cook for at least 5 minutes. Use a small spatula to check the scallops as they brown, allowing them to color gradually. They should be quite crisp and well caramelized. Turn off heat and flip scallops. Leave in pan until firm to the touch.
• While the scallops are cooking, blanch the bok choy: Cook it for 1 minute in the salted boiling water, then drain and blot on a kitchen towel. Keep warm.
• Remove and place scallops, browned side up, onto warmed serving plates. Surround with the bok choy leaves and halved or sliced sweet potatoes.
• Quickly warm the butter in the cast-iron pan and spoon over everything. Sprinkle with cilantro if desired.

Steps:

Sear the tuna for about 20 seconds on both sides. Keep the steaks warm in an oven set to very low heat. Dry the scallops with a paper towel. heat the remaining olive oil to the smoking point, and tosss the scallops in the pan over moderate heat until they are just warmed through. Set aside in the open at very low heat. Wipe the pan clean and raise thee heat under it to high. pour in the stock, white wine and lime juice. Bring the mixture to a boil and reduce it by one third. whisk in the cold butter and lime infused oil. Keep whisking until the liquid boils. The sauce will not become very thick, but will hold together. Taste for seasoning (salt and pepper) and set aside. To serve, place on tuna steak on each serving plate. Top each one with 4 scallops and 1 T salmon caviar. Reheat the sauce if needed, whisking continuously. Pour a little sauce on each plate.

Steps:

• Place chopped mushrooms in a roasting pan and pour the sashimi oil on top and roast for approximately 5 minutes in a 400 degree oven.
• Bring everything to a boil in a saucepan.
• Bring chicken stock, fish stock and shallot to a boil. Add the soy sauce and reduce. Add heavy cream and butter. Mix in sea urchin.
• To Serve: Place 1 taro root chip on top of the plate, place 3 slices of tuna (per person) and 1 whole scallop. Garnish with mushrooms, pour the warm sashimi oil on top of the tuna and scallops. Pour the sea urchin sauce around the tuna and place 1 chip on top.
