Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 1/2 pounds large scallops (about 24)
1/4 cup vegetable oil
2 1/2 teaspoons ground coriander
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
3 large navel oranges
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
1 tablespoon fish sauce
1/2 head napa cabbage, shredded

Whisk to combine and set aside. Add the cabbage, cilantro, red onion, jalapeño and peanuts to the large bowl with the oranges and set aside.
  • Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the scallops in an even layer. Cook until golden brown on the bottom, about 3 minutes.
  • Flip the scallops and cook until opaque, about 2 more minutes.
  • Add the dressing to the cabbage-orange slaw and toss well to coat; season with salt and pepper. Divide the slaw among plates and top with the scallops.

Categories     main-dish

Time 30m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 21

1/2 pound linguini
1 pound sea scallops
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil, plus some for drizzling
3 tablespoons butter, divided
2 cloves garlic, chopped
1 large shallot, finely chopped
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
4 springs fresh thyme, leaves removed and chopped
1 cup dry white wine
1 cup seafood stock or clam juice
25 leaves fresh basil, shredded or torn
1/2 cup chopped flat-leaf parsley, a handful
1 lemon, zested and juiced
4 cups baby arugula or any mixed greens
1/2 pint grape or cherry tomatoes, cut in 1/2
Drizzle extra-virgin olive oil
Splash balsamic vinegar
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Strawberries
Split of Champagne, perfect for 2

Steps:

  • Place a large pot of water over high heat and bring up to a boil for the pasta. Once at a boil add some salt and cook pasta to package directions. Hold off on starting the scallops until you drop your pasta.
  • Remove the mussel from the scallops then with a paper towel pat them dry and season them with salt and pepper.
  • Preheat a large skillet over medium high heat. Add 1 tablespoon of extra-virgin olive oil, about 1 turn around the pan and 2 tablespoons of the butter. When butter melts into oil, add scallops. Brown scallops 2 minutes on each side, then remove from pan and cover loosely with foil to keep warm.
  • Add an additional drizzle of olive oil to the skillet and add the garlic, shallots, crushed red pepper flakes, thyme, a little salt and pepper. Reduce heat a little and saute garlic and shallots 1 to 2 minutes, stirring constantly. Add wine to the pan and free up any pan drippings. Reduce wine 1 minute, then add seafood stock. Continue to cook for about 1 minute. Add the basil, parsley, lemon zest and juice and the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter, shake and stir the mixture until the butter has melted. Add the cooked linguini and cook for about 30 seconds, just to combine and let the pasta soak up the sauce.
  • Divide the pasta between 2 serving plates and top with reserved scallops.
  • For the side salad, in a bowl combine the arugula and tomatoes, drizzle with a little extra-virgin olive oil, a splash of balsamic vinegar, and season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat and serve.
  • And for dessert, rinse strawberries and arrange on a plate. Serve with a glass of Champagne.
