SEA SCALLOPS WITH ZUCCHINI RIBBONS AND MINT-CHIVE OIL



Sea Scallops with Zucchini Ribbons and Mint-Chive Oil image

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h3m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 large zucchini
1 1/4 pounds large sea scallops, foot removed if necessary (about 12 to 14)
1/4 cup roughly chopped fresh mint
1/4 cup sliced fresh chives
3 tablespoons freshly squeezed orange juice
2 tablespoons canola or grapeseed oil, plus additional for brushing
1 tablespoon limoncello (see Cook's Note, right)
1 teaspoon kosher salt, plus additional for seasoning
Pinch cayenne pepper
2 large ripe tomatoes, preferably 1 red and 1 yellow
Freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Prepare an outdoor grill with a medium-high fire. If you're using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes before grilling. (Or you can use wooden toothpicks.)
  • For the scallops: Slice the zucchini lengthwise on a mandoline into thin slices, about 1/8- inch thick. When you get to the seedy center, rotate the zucchini 1/3 turn and continue to shave slices until you hit seeds. Give the zucchini a final 1/3 turn and shave off the remaining slices. (You want to end up with the same number of zucchini slices as you have scallops.) Discard the seedy center. Wrap a zucchini ribbon around the circumference of each scallop. Thread 2 to 3 scallops per skewer or 1 per toothpick.
  • For the dressing: Whisk the mint, chives, orange juice, 2 tablespoons oil, limoncello, salt, and cayenne in a small bowl. Set aside.
  • Cut up the tomatoes, season them with salt and black pepper to taste, and divide them among 4 plates.
  • Brush scallops with oil and season with salt and black pepper to taste. Grill, turning to cook both sides, until zucchini and scallops are cooked through and have distinct grill marks, about 8 minutes total. Divide the scallops evenly among the plates, drizzle scallops and tomatoes with the dressing, and serve hot or at room temperature.

SAVORY SAUTEED SCALLOPS WITH CHERRY TOMATOES



Savory Sauteed Scallops with Cherry Tomatoes image

I found this recipe in a magazine over 10 years ago. Since that day, I have served this dish to many scallop lovers - not one has been disappointed yet. Key is NOT to overcook the scallops. They cook VERY quickly. I like very flavorful dishes - usually double this sauce and serve the dish with couscous.

SEA SCALLOPS WITH GARLIC AND TOMATOES



Sea Scallops With Garlic and Tomatoes image

Provided by Pierre Franey

Categories     dinner, easy, quick, main course

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 1/4 pounds fresh sea scallops, cut in half if large
1/4 cup milk
1/4 cup flour for dredging
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 teaspoons finely chopped garlic
2 cups diced fresh, ripe tomatoes, peeled and seeded
2 tablespoons red-wine vinegar
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1/2 cup coarsely chopped basil leaves or parsley

Steps:

  • Place the scallops in a bowl, and add the milk. Stir to coat, and let stand briefly.
  • Place the flour in a flat dish. Add salt and pepper; blend well. Drain the scallops, and dredge them in the flour mixture. Place the flour-coated scallops in a large sieve. Shake to remove any excess flour. Scatter the scallops onto a sheet of foil or wax paper so that they do not touch, or they may stick together.
  • Heat the olive oil in a saucepan. Add the garlic, tomatoes, salt and pepper. Add the vinegar, and bring to a sizzle. Simmer for 2 minutes.
  • Heat the vegetable oil over high heat in a nonstick skillet large enough to hold the scallops in one layer. Add the scallops, and cook, stirring, until lightly browned, about 4 minutes. Spoon equal portions of the scallops onto warm plates, and pour some of the tomato sauce over each portion. Sprinkle each with an equal amount of chopped basil or parsley, and serve with noodles.

SEARED SCALLOPS WITH JAMMY CHERRY TOMATOES



Seared Scallops With Jammy Cherry Tomatoes image

The simple, summery dinner is a reminder that in-season produce and fresh seafood shine brightest with little fussing. Seared scallops are paired with cherry tomatoes that are cooked in white wine and butter until they're falling apart, and the whole thing is finished with a sprinkle of fresh herbs and lemon zest. Equal parts casual and elegant, this dish is best served straight from the skillet, with a big green salad, a nice loaf of bread and the rest of the wine.

Provided by Lidey Heuck

Categories     dinner, weekday, seafood, main course

Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/2 cup thinly sliced shallots (about 2 shallots)
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/4 cup dry white wine, such as muscadet or sauvignon blanc
1 pound cherry tomatoes, cut in half through the stem (about 3 cups tomatoes)
Kosher salt and black pepper
16 large sea scallops (about 1 pound), tough muscle removed
2 tablespoons grapeseed oil, plus more as needed
1 lemon, halved
Julienned fresh basil and mint, for serving
Coarse sea salt, for serving

Steps:

  • Heat a large (12-inch) skillet over medium-low and add the butter to melt. Add the shallots and cook, stirring occasionally, for 3 to 5 minutes, until tender but not browned. Add the garlic and cook for 30 seconds to 1 minute, until fragrant.
  • Add the wine and cook until about half the liquid has evaporated.
  • Add the tomatoes, 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper and cook over medium-heat, stirring occasionally, for 10 to 12 minutes, until the tomatoes have released their juices and almost completely collapsed. Transfer the tomato mixture to a small dish (use a rubber spatula to get every last bit of the sauce!), then carefully wipe out the pan with a damp paper towel.
  • Pat the scallops dry. Add the grapeseed oil to the skillet and turn the heat to medium-high. When the oil is very hot, add half the scallops, spacing them evenly in the pan, and season with kosher salt. Cook without moving for 2 to 3 minutes, until golden brown on the bottom. Flip and cook for 1 more minute. Don't overcook! Transfer the scallops to a plate and repeat with the remaining scallops, adding more oil if necessary.
  • Drain any remaining oil and take the skillet off the heat. Return the tomatoes and their juices to the skillet and squeeze in 1 tablespoon lemon juice. Return the scallops to the skillet, nestling them into the tomatoes. Top with the zest of both lemon halves, julienned basil and mint, and a generous sprinkle of coarse sea salt, and serve immediately.

SEARED SCALLOP PASTA WITH BURST TOMATOES AND HERBS



Seared Scallop Pasta With Burst Tomatoes and Herbs image

Although usually designated as a "something special" ingredient, scallops make a perfect weeknight dinner because they cook in minutes. To get a good, crisp sear, be patient (it's hard for us, too) and let the pan get quite hot before adding the scallops. Once you do, leave them alone to ensure a deeply golden crust. Toss them with pasta and candy-colored cherry tomatoes that burst and get coaxed into a jammy sauce. Finish with a showering of fresh, tender herbs and a drizzle of olive oil.

Provided by Colu Henry

Categories     dinner, for two, quick, weekday, weeknight, pastas, seafood, main course

Time 30m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

Kosher salt and black pepper
1 pound linguine fini or other long, thin pasta
4 tablespoons olive oil, plus more for drizzling
2 shallots, thinly sliced into rings
1 1/4 pounds Sun Gold, cherry or grape tomatoes
2 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
Pinch of red-pepper flakes (optional)
1 pound large sea scallops, patted dry
1 1/2 cups roughly chopped mixed herbs, such as tarragon, mint, parsley and chives, plus more for serving

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of well-salted water (2 heaping tablespoons kosher salt to about 7 quarts water) to a boil. Add the pasta and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Reserve 1 1/2 cups pasta cooking water, then drain pasta.
  • Wipe out the pot and heat 2 tablespoons olive oil over medium. Add the shallots and cook until they begin to soften, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the tomatoes and cook, stirring occasionally, until they start to burst, 5 to 7 minutes. Add about 1/3 cup reserved pasta water, and press the tomatoes gently with the back of a spatula or wooden spoon to get them nice and jammy. Stir in the garlic and red-pepper flakes, if using, and cook, allowing the sauce to simmer, 1 to 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper; set aside.
  • Season the scallops well on both sides with salt and pepper. In a 12-inch skillet, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil over high. When the oil shimmers, add the scallops, working in batches to avoid crowding the pan, and cook until golden brown and crisp, flipping once, 1 to 2 minutes per side.
  • Add the pasta, 1 1/2 cups herbs and 1/4 cup reserved pasta water to the pot with the tomatoes and toss to coat, adding additional pasta water if needed. Divide the pasta among shallow bowls and top with scallops. Garnish with additional herbs and a drizzle of olive oil, if desired.
