My daughter loves scallops and I can't wait to make this elegant dish for her. It comes from Bon Appetit. Ingredients:
1 tablespoon olive oil |
1 cup onion, finely chopped |
2 lbs sea scallops |
1/2 cup chives, chopped |
2 tablespoons parsley, chopped |
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour |
1 tablespoon ginger, peeled and minced |
1 tablespoon lime juice |
1 large egg, beaten |
2 teaspoons salt |
1 teaspoon lime peel, grated |
1/4 teaspoon pepper |
2 tablespoons oil |
Directions:
1. Heat olive oil in a non stick skillet on medium heat.
2. Add the onion and cook until tender, but not brown. Let cool.
3. In a food processor, coarsely chop scallops - do not over process.
4. Place chopped scallops in a large bowl and add onion, chives, parsley, flour, ginger, lime juice, egg, salt, lime peel and pepper.
5. Form into 8 1/2 inch thick patties, about 3 inches in diameter.
6. Place patties on plate or baking sheet and chill for 1-6 hours.
7. Preheat oven to 450°F.
8. heat oil in large non stick skillet over medium heat and cook scallop cakes until golden brown, about 2 minutes per side.
9. Transfer cakes to the baking sheet and bake until completely cooked - about 7 minutes.
10. Serve with Cilantro-Lime Mayonnaise, which I've also posted, or whatever condiment you might enjoy.
