Seared Scallops with Asparagus Sauce Recipe
Ingredients (7)
- 6 sea scallops*
- Salt
- 1 pound asparagus
- 1/2 cup warm chicken broth (if cooking gluten-free use gluten-free stock)
- 2-3 tablespoons butter
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil or canola oil
- *Sea scallops are the big scallops, about 1 1/2-inches wide, as opposed to bay scallops which are small, about 1/2-inch wide. Look for “dry pack” scallops, as they are not treated with chemicals to keep them fresh; the chemicals are not overly harmful, but they change the texture of the scallop and make them harder to sear properly.:
