Ingredients:

Serving

for the scallops
20 ea., sea scallops
6 tbsp. olive oil for frying
kosher salt
fresh cracked pepper
for the coulis
1 1/2 cups watercress, leaves and thin stems only
1/4 cup olive oil
1/4 cup clam juice
2 tbsp. sherry vinegar
3 tbsp. unsalted butter
kosher salt to taste
white truffle oil to taste

Directions:

In a food processor or blender, combine the watercress, olive oil, clam juice, vinegar. Blend until smooth. If the coulis is too thick, thin it out with a little water. It should not be like a pesto type consistency. Transfer to a sauce pan and heat until about 160 degrees. Remove from heat and whisk in the butter until emulsified. Season to taste with kosher salt, and whisk in the truffle oil to desired strength.
Meanwhile, heat two saute pans with 3 Tbsp. of oil in each until smoking. Season the scallops with kosher salt and pepper, and add 10 scallops to each pan and sear until about medium doneness, about 1 1/2 to 2 minutes per side. Serve immediately with the watercress coulis.
