Categories     Entree

Time 35m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 lb fresh broccoli
1/4 lb fresh mushrooms
1 lb uncooked sea scallops
1/4 cup roasted red bell peppers (from 7-oz jar)
1 cup uncooked regular long-grain white rice
2 cups water
2 tablespoons butter or margarine
3 tablespoons cornstarch
1 can (10 1/2 oz) condensed chicken broth
2 teaspoons soy sauce

Steps:

  • Trim the large leaves from the broccoli, and cut off any tough ends of lower stems. Rinse broccoli with cool water. Cut stems and florets into bite-size pieces. Cut stem ends from the mushrooms, and cut the mushrooms into 1/4-inch slices.
  • If the scallops are larger than 1 inch in diameter, cut each in half. Rinse with cool water, and pat dry with paper towels. Drain the roasted red peppers in a strainer; cut the red peppers into slices.
  • In a 2-quart saucepan, heat the rice and water to boiling over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking. Once mixture is boiling, reduce heat just enough so mixture bubbles gently. Cover with lid; cook about 15 minutes or until rice is fluffy and tender. While the rice is cooking, continue with the recipe.
  • In a 3-quart saucepan or 12-inch skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the mushrooms; cook about 5 minutes, stirring frequently, until tender when pierced with a fork.
  • Stir in the scallops, broccoli and roasted red peppers. Cook 3 to 4 minutes, stirring frequently, until scallops are white and opaque. Remove the saucepan from the heat.
  • Place the cornstarch in a medium bowl. Gradually stir the chicken broth into the cornstarch until the mixture is smooth. Stir the broth mixture and soy sauce into the scallop mixture. Heat to boiling over high heat, stirring constantly. Continue boiling 1 minute, stirring constantly. Serve over rice.

SEIZED SCALLOPS WITH BROCCOLI RABE



Seized Scallops With Broccoli Rabe image

Provided by Jacques Pepin

Categories     dinner, main course

Time 25m

Yield Six servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 1/4 pounds broccoli rabe
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon finely chopped garlic
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1/3 cup water
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 pound medium-size sea scallops (about 30 to the pound)
1 tablespoon virgin olive oil
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
4 tablespoons virgin olive oil
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • For the broccoli rape: With a sharp knife peel off and discard the thick, fibrous skin covering the larger broccoli rabe stems. Cut the vegetable into 1 1/2-to-2-inch pieces. Rinse well and dry thoroughly.
  • No more than 30 minutes before serving time, heat the olive oil in a saucepan. Add the garlic and pepper flakes to the hot oil and stir for about 4 seconds, then add the broccoli, water and salt. Cover and cook for 5 minutes. By then, most of the liquid should be gone. Set the broccoli rabe aside while you prepare the scallops.
  • For the scallops: Remove the small sinew, which tends to be tough, from each scallop. Rinse the scallops in cool water to remove any sand and dry them thoroughly. In a bowl mix the scallops with the olive oil, salt, thyme and pepper.
  • At serving time, heat a skillet for about 3 minutes, until very hot. Add the scallops, spreading them to create one layer, and cook them over high heat for about 2 minutes, turning them occasionally so they brown well on all sides. Cover the skillet and set it aside off the heat for about 1 minute so the scallops continue to cook in the residual heat.
  • Meanwhile, in a small bowl mix together the sauce ingredients. Divide the broccoli rabe among six plates and arrange the scallops on top, about five per plate. Spoon some sauce over the scallops and serve immediately.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh, high-quality ingredients. Fresh scallops should have a sweet, briny smell and a firm, plump texture. Broccoli should be deep green and have tightly closed florets.
  • Don't overcook the scallops. Scallops are a delicate seafood, so it's important to cook them quickly over high heat. Overcooked scallops will become tough and rubbery.
  • Use a large skillet or wok. This will help to ensure that the scallops and broccoli cook evenly.
  • Add the scallops last. This will help to prevent them from overcooking.
  • Serve immediately. Stir-fried scallops and broccoli is best served hot, right out of the skillet or wok.
