One of my new inventions this dish is awesome! I invented on New Years Day that I was spending at Lake Norman, NC. with my boyfriend then I wanted to surprise him and make something different for dinner so I came up with the idea of making scallops. This orange glaze pairs up so well with scallops. So easy to make yet delicious. You must try!!!
Ingredients:
12 jumbo sea scallops
1/2 cup orange juice
4 tablespoons butter
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon pepper
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1 teaspoon parsley flakes
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
Directions:
1. In a small sauce pan add the 3 Tbsp of butter, orange juice, 1/2 tsp of salt, 1/2 tsp pepper and minced garlic then bring to boil for 2 minutes then reduce the heat and let it simmer for about 10 minutes stirring occasionally. Sit aside.
2. Wash and gently dry the scallops then season with the rest of the salt and pepper.
3. In a hot frying pan add the olive oil and 1 tbsp of butter to melt then add the scallops let it cook for about 3-4 minutes each side then add the orange glaze then flip one more time.
4. Serve with mashed potatoes or fresh steamed veggies.
