This is a simple, but tasty scallop dish that I made up on my last trip to Nova Scotia:

Ingredients

  • fresh shucked scallops
  • salt
  • pepper
  • butter
  • lemon juice
  • Corberrie’s apple cider

Step-by-Step Instructions

  • Rinse scallops with fresh water.
  • Place scallops on a plate, and lightly season with salt and pepper.
  • Melt a tablespoon or two of butter in a skillet, over a medium heat.
  • Place scallops in the skillet, sautéing until scallops are golden brown on each side.
  • Return scallops to the plate.
  • Reduce heat of the burner to medium low.
  • In the skillet, add a smidge more butter, if needed, along with the juice of half a lemon, and a tablespoon or two of Corberrie’s apple cider. Simmer until reduced.
  • Off the heat, mix the scallops in the reduced goodness in the skillet.

Enjoy!
