Time 10m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

12 large scallops
1 pinch kosher salt
fresh cracked black pepper
4 tablespoons clarified butter
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup dry white wine
1 lemon, zested and juiced
1 tablespoon flat leaf parsley, finely chopped
8 chives (optional garnish)

Steps:

  • Check each of your scallops for a small crescent-shaped muscle that may be attached on the side. If you find one, just peel it off with your fingers - it is easily removed. This muscle toughens during cooking.
  • Rinse the scallops and dry them thoroughly. Season both sides with salt and pepper.
  • Spread the sugar in a thin layer on a plate.
  • Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the clarified butter - when it starts to foam, you are ready to add the scallops. Dip only one side of each scallop in the sugar and place that side down in the pan. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until nicely seared. Flip and scallops and cook for another minute. Add the wine and lemon juice to the pan. Reduce the liquid by half. After about 1 1/2 minutes, transfer the scallops to a warm platter and pour pan juices over top.
  • Serve the scallops with the pan sauce and garnish with the parsley, chives and lemon zest.

I'm not sure what went wrong with this recipe. I followed the instructions exactly, but the scallops turned out dry and tough. The sauce was also very bland.

This recipe was a disaster! The scallops were rubbery and the sauce was watery. I will never make this again.

I was a bit disappointed with this recipe. The scallops were overcooked and the sauce was bland. I think I will try a different recipe next time.

I followed the recipe exactly and the scallops turned out great. The only thing I would change is to use a different type of wine. I used a Chardonnay and it was a bit too sweet for my taste.

These scallops are delicious! The caramelized crust is crispy and the white wine sauce is light and flavorful. I will definitely be making this again.

This recipe is a keeper! The scallops were perfectly cooked and the sauce was amazing. I served them over a bed of angel hair pasta and it was a perfect meal.

I was a bit hesitant to try this recipe because I'm not a huge fan of scallops, but I'm so glad I did! The scallops were cooked perfectly and the sauce was delicious. I will definitely be making this again.

I followed the recipe exactly and the scallops turned out great. The only thing I would change is to add a bit more garlic to the sauce.
