Recipe

Cooking tips

  • The key to scallops is high pan temperature and perfect moisture removal. Residual moisture or low heat will cause them to release juices and become tough.
  • Be sure to turn off the heat immediately after flipping the scallops to prevent the butter and thyme from burning, allowing only their aroma to infuse gently.
  • The rich creaminess of the sauce is nicely balanced by the fresh diced apple and cilantro leaves served at the end.

Recommended for

  • Those who want to showcase high-end Western cuisine that rivals restaurant course meals at home parties or celebrations.
  • Those who desire a classic harmony of tender, chewy scallops and a rich bacon cream sauce.
