Chocolate-Dusted Scallops with Vanilla Butter Sauce image

Provided by Emeril Lagasse

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 large sweet potato, peeled and sliced into gaufrettes
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa
1 tablespoon dried fennel seeds, toasted and ground
3/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
2 teaspoons fine salt
1/2 teaspoon cayenne
1 pound sea scallops, patted dry
Vegetable oil, for frying
2 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
1/4 cup dry white wine
1 vanilla bean, split and seeds scraped
2 teaspoons grated orange zest
1/2 cup heavy cream
1 stick cold unsalted butter, cut into pieces
1 medium orange, segmented

Steps:

  • Heat frying oil in a deep fryer to 375 degrees F.
  • In batches, add sweet potatoes to oil and fry until crispy, about 1 minute. Drain on a paper towel-lined plate.
  • In a shallow dish, combine the cocoa, fennel, cloves, cinnamon, salt, and cayenne. Lightly dredge 1 side of the scallops in the spice mixture, shaking to remove the excess.
  • In a large skillet, heat the 1 tablespoon of oil over medium-high heat. Add the scallops in batches as necessary and cook until just cooked through and golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes per side, depending upon thickness. Remove from the heat and cover to keep warm.
  • In a medium skillet, melt the sugar over medium heat. When it starts to caramelize, add the vinegar, wine, vanilla bean and seeds, zest and stir to combine. Bring to a simmer and cook until reduced by half, about 2 minutes. Add the cream and cook until thickened and reduced by half, 2 to 3 minutes. Lower the heat and whisk in the butter several pieces at a time, adding additional pieces just as the previous ones are almost incorporated. Remove from the heat and remove the vanilla bean. Stir in the orange segments and adjust the seasoning, to taste.
  • Spoon the sauce onto 4 plates and top with the scallops. Serve immediately with the sweet potato gaufrettes.

SCALLOPS WITH SORREL BUTTER



Scallops With Sorrel Butter image

Sorrel is a wonderfully pungent, tart spring green that takes well to rich and sweet ingredients. Here, it's melted into a garlicky, buttery pan sauce and served with seared scallops. One thing to note: as sorrel cooks, it dims from bright green to olive drab in color. But a garnish of chives - with the chive blossoms if you can get them - will perk things up considerably. If you can't find sorrel, you can make this dish with watercress or spinach, though you may need to add a squirt of lemon juice at the end to balance the flavors.

Categories     dinner, easy, for two, quick, one pot, main course

Time 20m

2 tablespoons chopped chives

Coriander-Crusted Scallops with Chive Potato Hash and Sweet Corn Sauce image

Provided by Mary Nearn

Categories     Blender     Garlic     Herb     Onion     Potato     Shellfish     Vegetable     Sauté     Healthy

Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 28

For chervil oil
1/2 cup canola oil
1/2 packed cup fresh chervil* leaves
For corn sauce
1 tablespoon canola oil
1 small white onion, chopped (about 1 1/2 cups)
1 carrot, chopped (about 3/4 cup)
1 celery stalk, chopped (about 1/2 cup)
2 garlic cloves, halved
6 cups chicken or vegetable stock or low-sodium broth, plus additional for thinning sauce
Kosher salt to taste
1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
3 cups fresh corn kernels (from 2 to 3 ears), cobs reserved
Chive potato hash
2 tablespoons canola oil
1 small russet potato, peeled and cut into 1/4-inch dice (about 1 cup)
1/2 small sweet potato, peeled and cut into 1/4-inch dice (about 3/4 cup)
1/8 teaspoon kosher salt
Scant 1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon fresh chives, chopped
Scallops
2 tablespoons ground coriander
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon chile powder
8 large sea scallops
1 tablespoon canola oil
4 fresh chervil sprigs, for garnish
*If chervil is unavailable, fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves may be substituted. Extra chervil (or parsley) oil will keep, covered, at room temperature 3 days. Try it in salad dressings or drizzled over fish, chicken breasts, or steamed vegetables.

Steps:

  • Make chervil oil
  • In blender, purée oil and chervil until chervil pieces are very small, 2 to 3 minutes. Strain through fine-mesh sieve into small bowl, pressing on solids to extract all oil. Set aside.
  • Make corn sauce
  • In medium saucepan over moderate heat, warm oil. Add onion, carrot, celery, and garlic and sauté, stirring frequently, until vegetables begin to soften, about 7 minutes (adjust heat as necessary to keep vegetables from browning). Add stock and corn cobs, raise heat to moderately high, and bring to simmer. Lower heat to moderate and simmer, uncovered, 45 minutes, adding stock if most of the liquid evaporates. Remove from heat. Using slotted spoon, remove vegetables and corn cobs and discard. Add corn kernels to stock, raise heat to moderately high, and bring to simmer. Lower heat to moderate and simmer, uncovered, 15 minutes.
  • While sauce is simmering, make chive potato hash
  • In medium heavy skillet over moderate heat, heat oil until hot but not smoking. Add potatoes and sauté, scraping up browned bits every few minutes, until tender and golden brown, about 15 minutes. Remove from heat, stir in salt, pepper, and chives, and keep warm.
  • Finish sauce
  • Remove from heat and let cool slightly, then purée mixture in blender until very smooth, about 2 minutes. Strain through mesh sieve into large bowl, pressing on solids to extract all liquid. If sauce is too thick to pour, stir in a small amount of additional stock. Stir in salt and pepper and keep warm.
  • Make scallops
  • In small bowl, stir together coriander, salt, and chile powder. Rinse scallops and pat dry, then sprinkle both sides with coriander mix. In medium heavy skillet heat oil until hot but not smoking. Add scallops and sear until lightly browned and cooked to desired doneness, 2 to 3 minutes per side for medium rare.
  • To serve, divide corn sauce among four plates. Top each pool of sauce with 1 tablespoon potato hash and 2 scallops. Drizzle with 1 teaspoon chervil oil and garnish with chervil sprigs.

Tips:

  • Use fresh scallops. Fresh scallops have a sweet, briny flavor and a tender texture. Avoid using frozen scallops, as they can be tough and watery.
  • Sear the scallops quickly over high heat. This will help to develop a nice golden brown crust on the outside while keeping the inside tender and juicy.
  • Do not overcook the scallops. Scallops cook very quickly, so it is important to remove them from the heat as soon as they are cooked through. Otherwise, they will become tough and rubbery.
  • Use a flavorful butter sauce. The butter sauce in this recipe is made with shallots, garlic, white wine, and lemon juice. It is a delicious and versatile sauce that can be used to serve with a variety of seafood dishes.
  • Garnish the scallops with fresh herbs. Fresh herbs, such as cilantro, parsley, or chives, add a pop of color and flavor to the dish.

Conclusion:

Scallops with Coriander Butter Sauce is a delicious and elegant dish that is perfect for a special occasion. The scallops are seared to perfection and served with a flavorful butter sauce. The dish is sure to impress your guests and it is easy to make. So next time you are looking for a special seafood dish to serve, give this recipe a try.
