Brown Butter Scallops In Jalapeno Walnut Sauce

1. 1

   In a small frying pan add the walnuts and place the pan over medium high heat.

   Toss and heat until you can smell the walnuts.

   Remove from heat and add them into a food processor.

   Set aside.

8. 8

   In a frying pan add the butter and place on medium heat.

9. 9

   Once the butter is melted and just barely starting to become brown add the scallops.

10. 10

    I usually pat each scallop off with a paper towel just before adding them to the pan.

11. 11

    They should only cook about a minute and a half on each side.

12. 12

    If they arent brown you need to turn up the heat just slightly.

13. 13

    Spoon sauce onto a dish and place the scallops on top.

    Its moderately fancy that way.
