The larger sea scallops and the smaller, more delicate bay scallops can be used interchangeably in recipes, but cooking times will vary. Ingredients:
1 pound sea scallops (about 25) |
1 tablespoon vegetable oil |
1 medium onion, halved and thinly sliced |
2 garlic cloves, minced |
1/4 cup clam juice |
2 tablespoons mirin |
1 1/2 teaspoons lemon-pepper seasoning |
1 tablespoon lemon juice |
2 tablespoons minced fresh chives |
Directions:
1. Place scallops on paper towels to remove excess moisture.
2. Place a large nonstick skillet over high heat until hot. Add half of scallops; cook 2 minutes on each side or until browned. Remove scallops from skillet; scrape off any residue in pan with a wooden spoon. Repeat procedure with remaining scallops.
3. Heat oil in skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Add onion and garlic; cook, stirring constantly, 3 minutes or until tender.
4. Return scallops to skillet; add clam juice and next 3 ingredients. Simmer 1 minute or until thoroughly heated. Sprinkle with chives before serving.
