Roasted Scallops Or Shrimp With Tomato Recipes

ROASTED SHRIMP WITH CHERRY TOMATOES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Put the shrimp, cherry tomatoes and garlic on a baking sheet, then drizzle with olive oil and toss. Season with salt and pepper.
• Roast until the shrimp are opaque and the tomatoes begin to burst, 10 to 12 minutes. Finish with a squeeze of the lemon half.

CREAMY PAN-ROASTED SCALLOPS WITH FRESH TOMATOES

Steps:

• Heat a large skillet over medium-high and add the butter, letting it melt. Add shallots, celery seeds and a pinch each salt and pepper, and cook until the shallots are tender and opaque, about 3 to 5 minutes. Stir in tomatoes. Bring to a simmer, stirring occasionally, and cook until jammy, 9 to 13 minutes.
• Increase heat to medium-high and stir in vermouth. Cook until about a third of the liquid evaporates, about 5 minutes. Add Worcestershire and cream, and simmer, reducing heat if needed and stirring occasionally, until sauce thickens enough to coat a spoon, 5 to 7 minutes.
• Season scallops with salt and pepper, and add to the pan. Cook, uncovered, until scallops are just cooked through and opaque, 3 to 6 minutes, depending on the size of the scallops. Stir in chives and celery leaves. Serve immediately, garnished with more chives and celery leaves.

SEARED SEA SCALLOPS WITH TOMATOES AND ONIONS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees and preheat grill to hot. Wipe the scallops dry with paper towels and brush them with a tablespoon of olive oil. Grill over very high heat just enough to make crosshatch marks on both sides. Do not cook any longer.
• Heat a tablespoon olive oil in a saucepan. Add the tomato and onion and saute for five minutes. Add the garlic and wine and cook two minutes more. Stir in the capers, olives, thyme, half a teaspoon of rosemary, the remaining three tablespoons of olive oil and salt and pepper.
• Pour mixture into a baking dish and arrange scallops on top. Bake for five minutes. Remove from oven and cool. Sprinkle with the extra-virgin olive oil and remaining rosemary and serve at room temperature.

SEARED SCALLOPS WITH ROASTED TOMATOES

Steps:

• Preheat broiler.
• Arrange tomatoes in a single layer in a shallow roasting pan; lightly coat tomatoes with cooking spray. Sprinkle tomatoes with 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper; toss well to coat. Broil 10 minutes or until tomatoes begin to brown, stirring occasionally.
• While tomatoes cook, heat oil in a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Pat scallops dry; sprinkle both sides of scallops with remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt and remaining 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Add scallops to skillet; cook 2 minutes on each side or until desired degree of doneness. Serve scallops with tomatoes; sprinkle with basil.
• Serving size = about 4 1/2 ounces scallops, about 1/3 cup tomatoes, and 1 1/2 teaspoons basil.
