Scallops in Parchment
• 11 March 2009
I love just about any dish containing white beans and this delicious appetizer is no exception. In fact, with the addition of a salad and an artisan sourdough bread, it would make a nice, light supper too. It's incredibly delicious.
A few notes:
1. You may substitute aluminum foil for parchment when in a pinch. It'll lack presentation but it will serve the same purpose.
2. I sear my scallops before placing them inside the packet. It creates depth and makes it better all around in my opinion. I also think people are more likely to try scallops if they are seared.
This recipe looks great. I love Real Simple and will have to try this soon. I just wish my husband would eat sallops!
ReplyDeleteLove the simple elegance of this dish - can't wait to try it! Thanks for the post.
ReplyDeleteI actually just bought frozen scallops at Trader Joes in an attempt to mix it up and try something other than chicken for dinner. This looks like a great method to cook them, thanks for the inspiration!
ReplyDeleteLove the simplicity of this too. I wish I liked scallops. Would another seafood substitute? Maybe I'll try with fish.
