INSTRUCTIONS
Note: See the "Bayou Blast - {Emeril's Creole Seasoning}" recipe which
is included in this collection. Peel, blanch, and cool the asparagus,
cut into 1 inch pieces, tips and stalks separated. Make relish: In a
small bowl combine asparagus tips, peppers, shallots, dill, lemon
juice and olive oil. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Set aside.
Make sauce: In a saucepan combine asparagus bottoms, onion and stock.
Simmer 12 minutes. Add cream and butter, stirring until it returns to
a simmer. Transfer to a blender or food processor and puree sauce.
Strain and keep warm. Season scallops with Bayou Blast. Heat oil in a
small saute pan and sear scallops 4 minutes on each side, or until
golden-brown and cooked through. Divide sauce between 2 plates, top
with 2 scallops each and spoon relish between them. Garnish with
chopped dill. This recipe yields 2 servings. Recipe Source: ESSENCE
