Seared Scallops on Braised Wild Mushrooms

Although this dish is quick and easy with few ingredients, its luxury comes from truffle oil-enhanced mushrooms. The crisp crust on the scallops renders a textural contrast to the tender mushrooms. (Cooking Light Magazine 8-04)

Just happened to buy the fresh organic mushrooms, scallops, and panko today; had the truffle oil and picked fresh watercress from our meadow; mixed in equal parts of fresh parsley with the thyme; recommend dipping the scallops in milk or half-n-half before dredging; and use a bit more oil than with cornmeal; used a bed of watercress, baby spinach, and pea sprouts; Excellente!

To get the best crust, be sure your skillet is very hot, and only turn once during cooking.

Excellent on baby greens if the greens in the recipe are not available. The mushrooms are good for steaks as well.

I enjoyed this as a light dinner with whole grain toast

I love the combination of peppery watercress with softened mushrooms and crispy scallop. This would be good to serve as a light, salad-like main dish.
