preparation

• Keep aside 1/5 of butter for cooking the scallops.

 

Preparation of the beurre blanc:

1. Cut the butter into small pieces.

2. Peel and finely chop the shallots and garlic cloves. Pour everything into a heavy-bottomed saucepan.

3. Add the vinegar and the white wine, bring to a boil and leave to evaporate slowly

4. When there is only about a tablespoon left, gradually add the cold butter over very low heat.

5. Beat until you get a creamy sauce and season.

 

Cooking the scallops:

1. In a frying pan, melt half the butter reserved for cooking.

2. When it becomes frothy, place the scallops.

3. Stir in the remaining butter and cook the scallops for about 2 minutes depending on their thickness, on each side.

4. Place the scallops on warm plates.

5. Cover with garlic butter sauce, decorate with a sprig of chives and add salt.

Serve immediately, with a glass of wine from Saint-Emilion appellations.

 

Enjoy and happy holidays !
