Recipe's Ingredients

  Quantities for people → Recalculate
  • 2 tablespoons minced onion
  • 2 tablespoons minced fresh cilantro
  • 1 teaspoon ground coriander
  • vegetable oil
  • 1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
  • 60 g cold unsalted butter
  • 180 g sea scallops
  • 60 ml water

  • Recipe preparation steps

  • 1
    In a small heavy saucepan simmer the onion, the vinegar, the water, and the ground coriander until the liquid is reduced to about 1 tablespoon and whisk in the butter, 1 piece at a time, lifting the pan from the heat occasionally to let the mixture cool adding each new piece of butter before the previous one has melted completely.
  • 2
    (The sauce should not get hot enough to liquefy- It should be the consistency of thin hollandaise).
  • 3
    Season the sauce with salt and pepper, transfer it to a bowl set in a larger bowl of warm water, and keep it warm.
  • 4
    Brush the scallops with the oil, heat a ridged grill pan over high heat until it is hot and just begins to smoke, and in it grill the scallops, for 5 minutes on each side, or until they are cooked through.
  • 5
    Whisk the fresh cilantro into the butter sauce.
  • 6
    Serve the scallops with the warm butter sauce.
  • Ready !
