Pan Seared Scallops with a Simple White Wine Cream Sauce
Ingredients
- 8 ounces scallops (defrosted, if necessary)
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 tablespoons dry white wine (such as Chardonnay)
- 1 tablespoon light whipping cream
- pinch of dried thyme
Directions
- Place scallops on a paper towel-lined plate; pat each one until dry. Sprinkle with black pepper.
- Heat a cast-iron skillet on medium heat. When hot, add olive oil and place scallops in the pan.
- Cook for about 1 or 2 minutes, or until brown and turning opaque on one side. Flip each scallop and continue cooking for approximately another 2 minutes or until opaque and cooked throughout. Remove scallops to a plate.
- Pour wine into skillet to deglaze the pan. Using a whisk, scrape browned bits from the pan into wine to add flavor. Turn heat to low and allow to simmer for a minute.
- Add dried thyme and stir in cream, just until warm. Spoon sauce over scallops, and serve immediately.
