SCALLOPS IN CREAM SAUCE WITH SPINACH FETTUCCINE



Scallops in Cream Sauce With Spinach Fettuccine image

This sounds really good. From the Alaska Seafood Marketing Institute. ETA: I finally made this and liked it. I made 2 appetizer servings, then discovered that my grandson doesn't like scallops, lol. I thought that the first serving I made was a tad bland. So took my grandson's portion and played with it a little bit. I added some gruyere cheese, a little fresh tarragon and a dash of nutmeg and really liked these additions.

Yield Makes 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 1/2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided
1 large shallot, minced
1/3 cup Calvados
1 cup heavy whipping cream
16 large sea scallops, patted dry
1/2 tablespoon vegetable oil
1/2 cup fresh unfiltered apple juice
1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme
1 large garlic clove, minced
1 9-ounce bag spinach leaves

Steps:

  • Heat 1/2 tablespoon olive oil in large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add shallot; stir 30 seconds. Add Calvados (brandy may ignite); boil 30 seconds. Add cream; boil 2 minutes. Transfer sauce base to bowl. (Sauce base can be made 2 hours ahead. Let stand at room temperature.)
  • Preheat oven to 300°F. Sprinkle scallops with salt and pepper. Heat vegetable oil in another large nonstick skillet over high heat. Add 8 scallops.
  • Cook until brown, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer to rimmed baking sheet; place in oven to keep warm. Repeat with remaining scallops. Add apple juice and thyme to hot skillet. Boil 1 minute, scraping up brown bits. Add sauce base; bring to boil. Remove from heat.
  • Heat remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil in large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add garlic and stir 30 seconds. Add spinach; toss until barely wilted and still bright green, about 2 minutes. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Using tongs, mound spinach in center of 8 plates, dividing equally.
  • Arrange 2 scallops on spinach on each plate. Pour any collected juices from baking sheet into sauce in skillet. Boil until thickened, about 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper; spoon over scallops.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients. This will make all the difference in the flavor of your dish.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan. If you do, the scallops will steam instead of sear.
  • Cook the scallops over medium-high heat. This will help them to caramelize and develop a nice crust.
  • Don't overcook the scallops. They should be cooked through but still tender and juicy.
  • Season the scallops simply. Salt, pepper, and a squeeze of lemon juice are all you need.
  • Serve the scallops immediately. They are best enjoyed hot out of the pan.

Conclusion:

Scallops in cream sauce with spinach fettuccine is a delicious and elegant dish that is perfect for a special occasion. The scallops are seared to perfection and then simmered in a creamy sauce made with white wine, shallots, and spinach. The fettuccine is cooked al dente and tossed with the scallops and sauce.
