Comment préparer Crispy Scallops With Chipotle Tartar Sauce
- **Make the Chipotle Tartar Sauce:** In a small bowl, combine 1/2 cup mayonnaise, 1 tablespoon chipotle peppers in adobo sauce (finely chopped), 1 tablespoon lime juice, 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh cilantro, 1 teaspoon finely chopped red onion, and salt and pepper to taste. Mix well and set aside.
- **Prepare the Scallops:** Gently pat 1 pound of large sea scallops dry with paper towels. This ensures a crispy exterior.
- **Coat the Scallops:** Place the dried scallops in a large plastic food storage bag. Add 1/2 cup yellow cornmeal, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon paprika. Seal the bag and shake until the scallops are evenly coated.
- **Sear the Scallops:** Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, carefully add the scallops to the skillet in a single layer, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan. Cook for 3 minutes undisturbed.
- **Flip and Finish:** Using tongs, gently flip the scallops and cook for another 2-3 minutes, until golden brown and opaque in the center. Avoid overcooking!
- **Serve:** Serve the crispy scallops immediately with a generous dollop of the chipotle tartar sauce. Garnish with extra cilantro, if desired.
