Ingredients List
- 1/3 cup crème fraîche
- 1/3 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest
- 1 1/2 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon snipped chives
- 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- Salt and freshly ground pepper
- 8 jumbo scallops (about 1 pound)
- 8 thin slices pancetta
- 1/2 pound brussels sprouts, thinly sliced
- 1 shallot, thinly sliced
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
Directions
A delicious recipe with scallops and thinly sliced Brussels sprouts sauteed with pancetta. For a healthier version, omit the pancetta.
Directions:
1. In a small bowl, whisk the crème fraîche with the finely grated lemon zest, fresh lemon juice, snipped chives and 1 tablespoon of the olive oil. Season the lemon-chive crème fraîche with salt and pepper.
2. In a medium skillet, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil until shimmering. Generously season the scallops with salt and pepper and add them to the skillet. Cook the scallops over moderately high heat, turning once, until they are golden and just cooked through, about 5 minutes. Transfer the scallops to a plate; tent with aluminum foil to keep warm.
3. In the meantime, in another medium skillet, cook the pancetta over moderately high heat, turning once, until browned and crisp, about 4 minutes. Add the brussels sprouts and shallot and cook, stirring, until the brussels sprouts are softened but still bright green, about 2 minutes. Off the heat, stir in the butter and garlic and season with salt and pepper; transfer to plates and top with the scallops. Serve with the lemon-chive crème fraîche.
