5 Scallops
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/2 tablespoon Olive oil
50 milliliters Dry white wine

Add scallops and cook until they are golden brown on both sides, 2-3 minutes per side. Remove from pan. 2 Add wine and vinegar to pan. Cook 2 minutes until slightly thick and stir in the scallops.

About


Scallops can be prepared in a variety of ways...used in soups, stews, chowders, breaded and fried, or wrapped in bacon, then broiled. Besides sauteing these meaty scallops with seasonal greens and XO sauce, my other favourite way is sear them quickly in a hot pan so that the outside gets a crisp, golden brown crust and the inside remains succulent and tender.
