This one is for Bobbie #3. A fave at our house as we are big on seafood of any kind. It comes from Cooking with three ingredients by Andrew Schloss. My kind of recipe!!!!! Ingredients:
1 lb large scallop, trimmed of any tendons |
3 tablespoons butter |
2 tablespoons capers |
Directions:
1. Season the scallops lightly with pepper.
2. Heat 1 tablespoon of the butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until foamy.
3. Add the scallops to the hot butter and cook, turning, until lightly browned, about 2 minutes per side.
4. Add the capers and cook about 30 seconds.
5. Swirl in the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter and remove from heat.
6. Salt & Pepper to taste.
7. Serve the scallops sauced with the caper butter.
8. Lemon wedges make a delicious garnish if you have them.
