Best Sauteed Scallops And Swiss Chard For Two Recipes
SAUTEED SCALLOPS
A very simple recipe for how delicious it is! Just crush the garlic with the side of a chef's knife blade instead of chopping it, and using whole sprigs of rosemary allows them to be easily removed before serving.

SAUTEED SCALLOPS AND SWISS CHARD (FOR TWO)
I jump from one obsession to the next. This week's obsession? Swiss Chard. Quick Tips: If you have other hearty spring greens or even broccoli rabe on hand, those can be substituted for the chard. Also, fresh thyme would work as well as tarragon. This recipe can be easily doubled to serve more. Adapted from Williams-Sonoma Weeknight Fresh & Fast, by Kristine Kidd (Williams-Sonoma, 2011).

Steps:
- In a large nonstick fry pan over medium-high heat, warm 1 Tbs. of the olive oil. Add the chard and season lightly with salt and pepper. Sauté until just softened, about 3 minutes. Transfer to a bowl and cover to keep warm.
- Season the scallops lightly with salt and pepper and dredge in flour to coat. In the same pan over medium-high heat, warm 1 Tbs. of the olive oil. Add the scallops and cook, turning once, until springy to the touch and no longer translucent in the center, about 3 minutes per side. Using tongs, transfer the scallops to a plate.
- Add the remaining 1 Tbs. olive oil to the pan and then add the shallot. Sauté until it begins to soften, about 1 minute. Add the wine and boil until almost evaporated, stirring to scrape up any browned bits, about 2 minutes. Add the broth, lemon juice, mustard and the 1/2 teaspoons tarragon and boil until slightly thickened, about 2 minutes. Remove from the heat, add the butter and stir until melted. Season the sauce with salt and pepper.
- Spoon the rice into the center of 2 warmed plates and top with the chard. Arrange the scallops on top of the chard and spoon the sauce over all. Garnish with the remaining minced tarragon and the pecans and serve immediately.

SAUTEED SWISS CHARD WITH SHALLOTS AND ALMONDS
There are lots of textures in this simple dish. We cook the chard stems first, since they need a little more time than the leaves to get tender (but not too long, so they retain some bite). Then we stir in the leaves, a fistful at a time, until tender. We top the chard with crunchy almonds and a drizzle of olive oil, which gives it a silky finish. If you have some on hand, toss in some dried cherries for a sweet note.

Steps:
- Prepare the Swiss chard by stripping the leaves from the stems with a knife. Slice the stems on a slight diagonal about 1/2 inch thick. Loosely arrange the leaves and chop into large pieces.
- Toast the almonds in a large skillet over medium heat without oil, shaking the pan occasionally, until the almonds are lightly browned and aromatic, 3 to 4 minutes. Pour them out of the pan to stop them from cooking and set aside.
- Heat the olive oil in the same skillet and increase the heat to medium high. Add the shallots and chard stems and cook, stirring frequently, until soft and browned, about 6 minutes. If the skillet begins to brown too quickly, add 1 to 2 tablespoons water. Add a handful of the chard leaves and a little salt, stirring until they wilt; continue adding leaves, seasoning lightly and wilting, until all the leaves are wilted.
- Transfer to a serving platter, drizzle with the vinegar and some additional olive oil, top with the almonds and sprinkle with dried cherries if using.
- 6th ingredient - dried cherries, golden raisins, diced apricots
