Description
Outstanding seafood dish for two with quick cleanup, perfect for any night of the week!
Ingredients
- 2 Tablespoons Canola Oil
- 1 Tablespoon Butter
- 8 ounces, weight Fresh Sea Scallops (If Using Frozen, Thaw First)
- 1-½ Tablespoon Old Bay Seafood Seasoning
- 1 cup Jasmine Rice Or Your Favorite Kind Of Rice
- Fresh Chopped Parsley, Garnish
- Lemon Wedges, For Serving (optional)
Preparation
Prepare a grill, griddle pan or heavy bottom pan over medium high heat. Add canola oil and butter.
Place scallops on a wide bowl or platter and use paper towels to gently pat dry. Season both sides with Old Bay seasoning (season sparingly, as a little goes a long way).
In a saucepan, add water and jasmine rice and cook according to package instructions. When rice is almost done, lower temperature and cover with a lid.
Now it’s time to sear the scallops. Once grill or pan is hot, add seasoned sea scallops and cook 2 minutes each side, keeping the temperature up to nicely sear the scallops.
To serve, plate some rice and add several seared scallops on top. Garnish with parsley and squeeze some lemon juice over seared scallops if desired. Enjoy!
