The smoky-tart flavors of this sauce pair well with the inherent sweetness of seared scallops or roasted pork tenderloin. Ingredients:
1 large lemon, cut into 1/4 rounds |
4 medium shallots, cut into 1/2 slices |
2 tablespoons sugar |
3/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil, divided |
fine sea salt and freshly ground black pepper |
1/3 cup aged balsamic vinegar |
2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives |
2 teaspoons dijon mustard |
Directions:
1. Preheat broiler. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil. Toss lemon, shallots, sugar, and 1/4 cup oil in a large bowl to coat. Season with salt and pepper. Spread mixture out evenly on prepared sheet; set bowl aside.
2. Broil lemon-shallot mixture until beginning to char in spots, 8-10 minutes. Turn lemon rounds and shallot slices over and broil until almost completely charred, 6 minutes, watching closely (once they begin to char, they can darken very quickly; discard any burnt lemon or shallot). Let cool.
3. Coarsely chop mixture. Place in reserved bowl and stir in vinegar, chives, Dijon mustard, and remaining 1/2 cup oil. Season with salt and pepper. DO AHEAD: Chutney can be made 5 days ahead. Cover and chill. Bring to room temperature before serving.
