Ingredients:

Serving

2 tbsp olive oil
2 shallots, finely chopped
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp white pepper
1 tomato, chopped (or 1/2 pint cherry tomatoes, quartered)
2 english seedless cucumbers, unpeeled
1/4 cup chicken broth
1/4 cup water
1/2 cup fresh parsley, finely chopped
12 sea scallops , large
1/4 cup butter
1/2 lemon , juice of

Directions:

Heat the olive oil in medium skillet, over medium-high heat; add shallots.
Cook, stirring, until softened, about 2 minutes; season with 1/4 teaspoons each of the salt and pepper.
Add the tomato; cook, stirring, 2-3 minutes.
Add cucumbers; cook, stirring until they begin to soften, 1-2 minutes.
Add chicken broth and water; cook until liquid is absorbed, 3-4 minutes. Toss with parsley; lower the heat to low. Keep warm.
Meanwhile, season scallops with remaining 1/4 teaspoons each of the salt and pepper.
Heat 2 Tbsps. of the butter until foamy and just beginning to brown in a large heavy skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat.
Place scallops in skillet; cook, without moving, until scallops form a dark crust, about 3 minutes.
Turn; cook until scallops are cooked to desired degree of doneness, 1-2 minutes, more for medium-rare. (There will be a translucent horizontal strip in the middle portion only.) Do not overcook.
Remove scallops from pan; keep warm.
Heat the remaining 2 Tbsps. of the butter in skillet until foamy; stir in lemon juice. Serve scallops next to the cucumbers, drizzled with the lemon brown butter.
