Seared Scallops With Pineapple Recipe #198436
This is a great appetizer with island inspiration.
25 min | 5 min prep
SERVES 3
- 1 lb sea scallops
- 1 cup chopped fresh pineapple
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon red chili pepper flakes
- 1 cup white wine
- 1 tablespoon chopped garlic
- salt and pepper
- Season scallops with salt, pepper and chili flakes.
- In a hot pan (I prefer cast iron) add oil. When the oil starts to smoke add scallops and watch closely to make sure its not too hot.
- Sear the scallops until golden brown on both sides, but only flip once.
- Remove and set aside on a plate.
- Next add the chopped garlic and cook for just a minute or two, then add the wine.
- The garlic and wine should start to simmer, continue this until its reduced.
- Then add the pineapple and stir around to coat.
- Pour it all over the scallops and garnish. Serve immediately.
- For the wine I prefer to use Alice White Lexia, its smooth and has more of a fruity flavor.
