Ingredients

Citrus Scallops with Emulsified Sauce Directions

  1. Rinse the scallops and place them in a large bowl.
  2. Combine lemon juice, lime juice, grapefruit juice, chives, mint, oil, salt, and pepper in a small bowl.
  3. Pour over the scallops and toss gently. Cover and marinate for 1 hour in the refrigerator (no longer).
  4. Lift the scallops from the marinade with a slotted spoon; reserve the marinade.
  5. Grill the scallops over medium coals just until done and firm to the touch, about 2 to 3 minutes per side. Do not overcook or they will be tough and rubbery. Keep scallops warm.
  6. Pour the marinade into a small saucepan and bring to a boil over medium heat.
  7. Boil until slightly reduced, about 2 to 3 minutes.
  8. Whisk in the butter, bit by bit, until the sauce is thick and emulsified.
  9. Strain the sauce and serve with the scallops.
