Scallops With Herbed Brown Butter image

Ask for "dry" scallops at your fish market; they are free of preservatives and release very little liquid while cooking, which is key to getting a good crusty sear.

Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 pound sea scallops, side muscle removed
Kosher salt, freshly ground pepper
2 tablespoons (1/4 stick) unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
4 sprigs herbs (such as tarragon, lemon thyme, or sage)
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice

Steps:

  • Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season scallops with salt and pepper and cook until deep golden brown on 1 side, about 3 minutes. Turn scallops and add butter and herbs to pan. Continue cooking, spooning butter over scallops often, until scallops are cooked through and butter is brown and smells nutty, about 3 minutes longer. Add lemon juice. Serve scallops with brown butter pan sauce.

This dish was a bit too rich for my taste. I think I would use less butter next time.

The scallops were a bit overcooked, but the herbed brown butter was delicious. I would make this dish again, but I would cook the scallops for a shorter amount of time.
