Ingredients for 2 Minute Scallops
- 8 large sea scallops (about 6 oz total)
- White Wine
- Olive Oil
- 2 tablespoons orange marmalade
How to Make 2 Minute Scallops
- Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large sauté pan over medium-high heat.
- Add 8 large sea scallops (about 6 oz total) to the hot pan. Sear for 15-20 seconds per side, until golden brown and opaque throughout. Remove scallops from pan and set aside, keeping warm.
- Add 1/4 cup dry white wine to the pan and deglaze, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Cook for about 10 seconds.
- Stir in 2 tablespoons orange marmalade and cook until the sauce slightly thickens and begins to bubble (about 15-20 seconds).
- Pour the sauce over the warm scallops.
- Garnish with 1 tablespoon chopped fresh herbs (tarragon, chives, or coriander) and serve immediately.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
