Best 5 Endive With Lemon And Sautéed Scallops Recipes

LEMON BUTTERED SEARED SCALLOPS

Steps:

• Place the scallops on a paper towel-lined sheet tray and pat dry. Sprinkle the scallops with salt and pepper.
• Preheat a large nonstick saute pan on medium-high heat, then add the oil and heat until shimmering. Add the scallops and sear on one side until golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes. Gently turn the scallops over and add the Lemon Butter, basting the scallops by gently spooning the melting butter over the top, for about 1 minute.
• Add the wine and lemon juice and allow the scallops to simmer until they are cooked through, another 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer the scallops to a platter and sprinkle with the chives.
• Combine the butter, lemon zest, lemon juice and salt in a medium bowl and stir until smooth. Spoon the butter onto the lower third of a piece of plastic wrap. Fold the plastic wrap over the butter and use a spatula to compress the butter into a log about 5 inches long and 2 inches wide. Twist both ends of the plastic wrap to seal the butter inside. Refrigerate the butter until firm, at least 30 minutes, before using.

EASY GARLIC-LEMON SCALLOPS

Steps:

• Melt butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Stir in garlic, and cook for a few seconds until fragrant. Add scallops, and cook for several minutes on one side, then turn over, and continue cooking until firm and opaque.
• Remove scallops to a platter, then whisk salt, pepper, and lemon juice into butter. Pour sauce over scallops to serve.

SAUTEED BAY SCALLOPS WITH LEMON BUTTER

Steps:

• Choose a saute pan large enough to hold all of the scallops in one layer without overcrowding the pan or without them touching each other. Cook in batches if necessary. Heat the oil and 1 tablespoon of the butter until nearly smoking. Add the scallops and do not move or shake pan, but allow the scallops to brown well on one side before tossing the pan to flip them or gently turning them with a spatula to cook the second side.
• Remove the scallops from the pan and place on a warm serving platter. Return the pan in which the scallops had been cooked to the fire, add the remaining 2 tablespoons of sweet butter, and cook until the butter begins to turn a light brown color. When the butter has browned to a hazelnut color add the lemon juice and chopped parsley.
• Pour the classic lemon butter over the scallops, garnish with heart-shaped croutons and serve promptly.

ENDIVE PETALS WITH SMOKED SCALLOPS

Steps:

• Fill a small saucepan with water. Add beets, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer until fork tender, about 45 minutes. Remove pan from heat. Drain, peel and set beets aside to cool. Chop beets into 1/4-inch dice.
• Combine beets, scallops, and parsley in a small bowl. Add lemon juice, olive oil, salt and pepper. Toss to combine. Serve scallops on individual endive leaves.

SCALLOPS WITH ENDIVE

Steps:

• If ocean scallops are used, cut them into quarters. Set aside.
• Trim off the ends of the endive. Cut the endive crosswise into 1-inch pieces. There should be about 4 cups loosely packed.
• Heat the butter in a skillet and add the shallots. Cook briefly and add the endive and lemon juice. Cook, stirring, until wilted. Add the wine and bring to the boil. Cover closely and let simmer 5 minutes.
• Add 3/4 cup of cream, the saffron, pepper flakes, salt and pepper and cook, uncovered, over high heat, stirring often, about 3 minutes.
• Add the scallops and cook, stirring, about 1 minute. Add the remaining cream, salt and pepper. Let cook about 2 minutes or until the scallops have lost their raw look. Do not overcook.
