Ingredients
16 scallops in the ½ shell
25 g butter, melted
SIDS SALT & PEPPER to taste
TOASTED HAZELNUT & CORIANDER BUTTER:--
20 g unblanched hazelnuts
75 g butter, softened
7 g coriander leaves
2 tbsp flat leafed parsley
7 g shallots, roughly chopped
½ tsp lemon juice
¼ tsp SIDS CRAZY LEMON
Directions
Preheat the oven grill to HIGH.
TOASTED HAZELNUT & CORIANDER BUTTER: spread the hazelnuts over a baking tray and toast under the grill for 4-5 minutes, shaking the tray now and then, until they are golden brown. Watch them carefully!
Tip them into a clean tea towel and rub off the skins. Leave to cool, then chop them roughly and tip into a food processor. Add the softened butter with the coriander, parsley, shallot, lemon juice, SIDS CRAZY LEMON and blend together until well mixed.
Put the prepared scallops in shell on to a large baking tray (or do them in batches) and brush with the melted butter. Season with a little SIDS SALT & PEPPER, then grill for 1½ minutes.
Drop a generous teaspoonful of the hazelnut and coriander butter on to each scallop and return to the grill for 1½ minutes until they are cooked through. Serve immediately.
