Best Scallops With Tangy Honey Glaze Recipes

TAMARI AND HONEY-GLAZED SCALLOPS

Steps:

• In a small bowl, whisk together tamari, honey, mustard, vinegar and red pepper flakes; set aside.
• Pat scallops dry with paper towels then heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large skillet over medium high heat.
• Cook scallops in a single layer, flipping once, until golden brown and just cooked through, about 2 minutes per side. (Work in batches, if necessary, adding the remaining 1 tablespoon oil when needed.)
• Transfer scallops to a large plate as done.
• Reduce heat to medium low and allow skillet to cool off a bit, then carefully add tamari-honey mixture to skillet and simmer briefly until reduced to a glaze.
• Return scallops to skillet and toss well to coat. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and serve.

HONEY-GLAZED SCALLOPS

Steps:

• In a small mixing bowl combine the low-sodium soy sauce, sriracha, honey, Dijon mustard, and vinegar; mix well to combine then set aside.
• Vigorously pat scallops dry using a double layer of paper towels; set aside. Heat 1 tablespoon of butter (or ghee) in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook scallops, in a single layer, until golden brown and just cooked through, about 2 minutes per side. Cook scallops in batches, if needed, adding the remaining butter or ghee when the pan begins to look dry. Transfer cooked scallops to a large plate and set aside.
• Using the same skillet you cooked the scallops in, reduce the heat to medium-low and carefully add in the honey mixture. Simmer for 2 to 3 minutes, or until it's reduced to a glaze. Quickly return scallops to skillet and toss well to coat. Sprinkle with cilantro and scallions, if desired, and serve at once. I love serving these scallops with brown rice and broccoli!

HONEY GARLIC BUTTER SCALLOPS

Steps:

• In a small bowl whisk honey, soy sauce, garlic and lemon. Add half of the sauce to the scallops and let marinate for 30 minutes.
• In a medium sized skillet at the butter. Add the scallops and discard marinade. Season with salt and pepper. Turn the heat to medium high. Sear scallops for 3- 3½ minutes on each side until they are golden brown on each side. Add the reserved marinade to the skillet. Cook until the sauce starts to thicken and add scallops back in to coat. Garnish with green onions.

BALSAMIC-GLAZED SEA SCALLOPS

Steps:

• Pat scallops thoroughly with a paper towel to remove excess moisture and ensure a good sear. Combine seafood seasoning, salt, and pepper and use to lightly season both sides of the scallops.
• Heat butter and olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add scallops to the skillet, being careful not to crowd. Cook until golden brown and a crust starts to form, about 3 minutes per side. Cook in batches if necessary to avoid steaming the scallops and be careful not to overcook. Remove from the skillet and cover to keep warm.
• Add white wine, balsamic vinegar, and Dijon mustard to the skillet and cook over medium heat, stirring constantly to scrape up the browned bits from the bottom. Cook until glaze is slightly thick and syrupy, 3 to 4 minutes.
• Move scallops to a serving plate, drizzle glaze on top, and garnish with chopped tarragon.

SPICY ORANGE-GLAZED SCALLOPS

Steps:

• Cook shallots and zest in 2 tablespoons olive oil over medium-high heat until they begin to brown. Add orange juice, broth, wine and habanero slices. Cook over high heat to reduce. Taste often and remove and discard habaneros when desired heat is achieved. When habaneros are removed, add the liqueur.
• Brush scallops with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Sear scallops on a grill pan to a slightly under-cooked state, about 3 1/2 minutes per side but watch them closely. Remove from grill pan and add scallops to the thickened orange glaze, tossing to coat well until scallops are cooked to desired doneness.
• Smear a clean plate with orange glaze top with 3 scallops. Drizzle scallops with more glaze and garnish with chives and orange slice.
