Recipe

Seared Scallops with Lemon-Butter Sauce

Ingredients:

  • 12 large scallops, patted dry
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 shallot, finely chopped
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • ¼ cup fish or chicken stock
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • Fresh chives or microgreens, for garnish

Instructions:

  1. Warm the olive oil and 1 tbsp butter in a pan over medium-high heat. Season the scallops with salt and pepper, then sear for 1–2 minutes per side until golden. Remove and set aside.
  2. Reduce the heat to medium. Add the chopped shallot, cooking until translucent. Deglaze the pan with lemon juice and stock, scraping up any browned bits.
  3. Whisk in the remaining 1 tbsp butter, stirring until the sauce is emulsified. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper.
  4. Return the scallops to the pan briefly to warm through, coating them in the sauce.
  5. Plate the scallops, garnish with chives or microgreens, and serve immediately.
  6. Enjoy alongside a chilled glass of Champagne Margaine W131 Les Grands Arbres NV for a beautifully balanced pairing.
