Pan-Seared Scallops with Lemon-Garlic Asparagus and Creamy Cauliflower Puree
Savor seared scallops paired with vibrant lemon-garlic asparagus and a silky, creamy cauliflower puree. This dish brings together the briny sweetness of scallops, crisp-tender asparagus drizzled with olive oil and zesty lemon, and a luscious, velvety puree making every bite both elegant and satisfying.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Sea Scallops
1 cup Asparagus
1.5 cups Cauliflower Florets
1 tsp Olive Oil (for Puree)
1 tsp Olive Oil (for Asparagus)
1/4 cup Unsweetened Almond Milk
1 Garlic Clove
1.5 Tbsp Lemon Juice
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Pat the scallops dry with a paper towel and season lightly with salt and black pepper.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the scallops and cook for about 2-3 minutes per side until a golden crust forms. Remove scallops and set aside, keeping them warm.
In the same skillet, add 1 teaspoon of olive oil. Toss the asparagus with minced garlic and lemon juice, then sauté for about 3-4 minutes until they become bright green and slightly tender but still crisp.
Steam or boil the cauliflower florets until very tender, about 8-10 minutes. Transfer the cauliflower to a blender along with 1 teaspoon olive oil and unsweetened almond milk. Blend until smooth, adding a pinch of salt and pepper to taste.
To plate, spoon a portion of creamy cauliflower puree onto the center of the plate. Arrange the lemon-garlic asparagus next to the puree and top with the pan-seared scallops. Garnish with an extra drizzle of lemon juice, if desired, and serve immediately.
