I found this recipe on the wrapper of a package of scallops I had just purchased. It sounds really good and something quick to make. I usually only have scallops when people are coming to dinner, and this will make the main course a breeze to prepare. Ingredients:
1 lb sea scallops |
1 teaspoon olive oil |
1 teaspoon butter |
1/2 cup fresh mushrooms, thinly sliced |
1/4 cup green onion, minced |
1 garlic clove, minced |
1/2 teaspoon white pepper |
1/2 cup dry sherry |
1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped |
salt |
Directions:
1. Heat oil and butter together in a skillet. Add mushrooms, onion, pepper, parsley and salt to taste. Saute on medium heat until mushrooms are tender (about 8 minutes). Meanwhile, mince garlic. After mushrooms are tender, add garlic to pan. Cook 2 minutes more.
2. Add scallops and sherry. Cook over a very high heat until sherry is reduced by half, turning scallops once (approximately 2 minutes per side). When finished, the scallops will be covered with an elegant light brown glaze.
