SCALLOPS PROVENCAL
Steps:
- If you're using bay scallops, keep them whole. If you're using sea scallops, cut each 1 in half horizontally. Sprinkle with salt and pepper, toss with flour, and shake off the excess.
- In a very large saute pan, heat 2 tablespoons of the butter over high heat until sizzling and add the scallops in 1 layer. Lower the heat to medium and allow the scallops to brown lightly on 1 side without moving them, then turn and brown lightly on the other side. This should take 3 to 4 minutes, total. Melt the rest of the butter in the pan with the scallops, then add the shallots, garlic, and parsley and saute for 2 more minutes, tossing the seasonings with the scallops. Add the wine, cook for 1 minute, and taste for seasoning. Serve hot with a squeeze of lemon juice.

Steps:
- Pernod is an anise flavored liqueur - Bev Mo carries it
- This makes 8 servings which is 3 scallops per person served over 2 oz of pasta per person.
- Sauce - heat olive oil in a pan. Saute the tarragon with the shallots until they are soft and starting to carmelize. Add the wine and lemon juice and reduce until thick. Add the cream and Pernod and turn down the heat to keep it warm, but be sure not to let it bubble.
- Heat another saute pan (I prefer stainless for searing) and when pan nice and hot add butter - when butter has stopped bubbling add scallops in a single layer (don't over crowd them). Sear on one side till golden brown (about 2 minutes) than flip over and sear the other side (about 1 to 1 1/2 min).
- Transfer scallops to a plate then add the cream sauce to the pan that you seared the scallops and deglaze. Place the drained pasta in the sauce and stir to coat.
- Place pasta on each dish, topped by the scallops.
- Pairs nicely with a glass of white wine

SCALLOPS IN PERNOD AND CREAM
This is a delicious dish. My father made it for me and gave me the recipe several years ago. I'm afraid I'm not sure where he got the recipe, but I believe it was from a chef at an inn in Maine. Like most absolutely fabulous dishes, this is not low fat but definitely worth the indulgence! This is really nice with a long grain rice and wild rice mixture or with nice crusty bread to sop up the sauce. Can be served as an appetizer or a main course.
