Ingredients

  1. 1 pound scallops
  2. ¼ cup fresh lemon juice or concentrate
  3. ¼ cup Holland House® Sherry Cooking Wine
  4. 2 teaspoons cornstarch
  5. ⅓ cup butter
  6. 1 cup thinly sliced carrots

Instructions

  1. If scallops are large, slice them in half crosswise to make thin medallions. Combine scallops and lemon juice in a shallow baking dish; cover and refrigerate 30 minutes. When finished marinating, stir in sherry cooking wine and cornstarch.
  2. Melt butter in a large skillet over high heat. Add carrots and garlic; cook about 1 minute. Add mushrooms and thyme; cook and stir about 3 minutes. Stir in scallop mixture; cook until scallops are opaque, about 4 minutes. Stir in pea pods and green onions; heat through. Serve over hot cooked rice.

Used frozen peas + carrots, used some leftover shrimp, white onion instead of green

I added 1tbs of capers and some artichoke hearts when I put in the carrots; My wife loved it.

Made for my husband and self: used zucchini and red bell pepper in place of carrots. Used Marsala in place of cooking wine(which has added salt). Added a splash of cream to deepen the flavor; yummy, expect to make again.

Also – used jarred garlic not fresh and also added 1/8 cup white wine to 1/4 cup cabernet red wine since I didn’t have cooking sherry. Also mixed the cornstarch into the wine before soaking the scallops to dissolve the cornstarch. See other review for more info

I didn’t have the fresh pea pods, and can’t eat onions and garlic, so I subbed peas and carrots and used Jared mushrooms. It was killer! The lemon sherry sauce, I added some cream and cheese to and it was off the charts. Thanks!

This was OK–not bad, but not great. The only change I made was to sub zucchini and green pepper for the carrots and peas (I had some from my garden that I needed to use up), but it was the sauce I wasn’t crazy about. It was fairly bitter, and it didn’t highlight the sweetness of the scallops at all. My 19-month-old ate it with no complaints, though.

Tried this tonight for the first time. Made as directed except I didn’t have fresh garlic, only garlic powder. Definitely needs FRESH garlic. Also, didn’t have Holland House Sherry cooking wine so I substituted Holland House White cooking wine (3 T) + Red cooking Wine (1T). Might try again, but would definitely use the fresh garlic and larger scallops.
