Steps:
- Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the scallion whites and jalapeno and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 3 minutes. Add 1 1/2 cups water, the rice, bay leaf and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Increase the heat to medium high and bring to a simmer. Reduce the heat to low; stir, then cover and simmer until the rice is tender and the water is absorbed, 15 to 18 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the greens. Cover and set aside.
- Season the scallops with salt and sprinkle one side with the Cajun seasoning. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the vegetable oil, then the scallops, spice-side down; cook until browned and crisp, about 3 minutes. Flip and cook until just cooked through, about 1 minute.
- Stir the parsley and scallion greens into the rice and season with salt. Serve with the scallops and lemon wedges.
SCALLOPS WITH RICE
Scallops aren't the cheapest seafood on the market, but their buttery flavor is worth the expense. This is a simple, wholesome recipe that will satisfy, whether it is just you or guests. I buy frozen scallops from the grocer, thaw them, and they work just fine. For the rice I like to use a quick-cooking Rice Select royal blend--texmati white, brown, wild, and red for some variety. Some of the grains are nutty flavored and slightly al dente, which contrasts with the rest of the ingredients. Serve the same wine you cook with: a dry chablis is recommended. Serve with a vegetable or other side dish of your choice. Adapted from "Cooking in a Casserole" (1967) by Robert C. Ackart, esq.
