Seared Scallops Beurre Blanc

The Beurre Blanc:

  • 16 tablespoons of Unsalted Grassland Butter cut into 1/2-inch cubes. Keep chilled.
  • 1 cup of dry white wine
  • 2 tablespoons of white wine vinegar
  • 1 large shallot sliced thin
  • Kosher salt and black pepper to taste
  • 1 teaspoon of minced fresh tarragon

The Scallops:

  • Olive oil to coat the pan
  • One dozen large sea scallops
  • Kosher salt and black pepper to taste

  • For the Beurre Blanc, boil wine, vinegar, and shallot in a saucepan over medium heat until reduced to around 3 tablespoons. About 10-15 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool for about 30 seconds.
  • Turn heat to low, but enough to keep the mixture warm. Add a 2-3 cold butter cubes to the mixture and whisk until butter is almost completely melted. Continue adding butter, a few cubes at a time, and whisk until the mixture is the consistency of a thick cream.
  • Stir in salt, pepper, and tarragon. Set aside.
  • For the scallops, pat scallops dry on all sides. Let scallops sit at room temperature for 5 minutes to allow the surface to dry out.
  • Heat a heavy non-stick pan over medium-high heat. Add 2 tablespoons of oil, enough to coat the pan.
  • When oil starts to shimmer, add the scallops and sear until underside is golden brown, about 2 minutes.  Turn scallops over and sear the other side until golden brown. About 2 minutes.
