Method

  • If using fresh scallops, start by opening and cleaning the shells. For frozen scallops, place them in a bowl, let them thaw in the refrigerator, and drain on paper towels.
  • Bring water to a boil with a little sugar and salt.
  • Add the asparagus and let it cook for about 1-2 minutes.

Marinade

  • Finely chop the chili and garlic, and mix with sunflower oil and water.
  • Let the scallops marinate for at least 1 hour.
  • Remove the scallops from the marinade and drain them on paper towels. Save the marinade for making sauce.
  • Quickly sear the scallops in a frying pan or on the grill, about 30 seconds on each side.

Sauce

  • Pour the marinade into a small saucepan and reduce by half.
  • Add heavy cream and let it simmer for a bit.
  • Whisk in butter just before serving and season with salt and pepper.
  • Serve the pan-fried scallops with the sauce drizzled over, with asparagus and salad on the side.
