Having purchased Windsor Securities, Inc., in 2005, Steven Prusky led the way in technological innovations for the company’s trading system.
When he is not involved in company matters, Steven Prusky enjoys fine food; perhaps his favorite dish are sea scallops, particularly grilled or with lemon butter.
Scallops can be prepared quickly. For grilling, a light brushing of olive oil is all Steven uses.
The following recipe for lemon butter scallops takes only 15 minutes to complete.
Ingredients include one pound of scallops, one tablespoon of unsalted butter, kosher salt, and ground black pepper.
To make the sauce, you will need more kosher salt and ground black pepper, two tablespoons of unsalted butter, and one lemon’s worth of juice. Additional sauce ingredients include two cloves of minced garlic and, if desired, two tablespoons of freshly chopped parsley.
Begin cooking by melting one tablespoon of butter on medium heat in a big skillet. After taking off the muscle on the side of the scallops, rinse them in cold water and dab them dry. Sprinkle salt and pepper on them, according to taste.
Place batches of scallops in the skillet in a single layer. Fry and flip them for one or two minutes per side until they are golden brown and the middle is translucent. Keep each batch warm after cooking.
Make the sauce by melting two tablespoons of butter in the skillet. Put in the garlic and cook the mixture for about a minute, stirring often until the ingredients are fragrant. Mix in the lemon juice and add salt and pepper to taste.
Add the lemon butter mixture to the scallops and serve immediately. Sprinkle on parsley for extra flavor.
