Recipe
- Serves 2
Ingredients
- Chorizo – 1 sliced the thickness of a pound coin
- Spring onion - 2 trimmed and sliced
- Red chillies – 1 thickly sliced
- Scallops – 6 cleaned (with 2 shells reserved and cleaned if you can get them)
- Runny honey – ½ tbsp
Method
- First heat your heavy griddle pan over a high heat. Fry the chorizo, without any extra oil, until it is browned and some of the juices are running in the pan. Then add one of the sliced spring onions and chilli and fry for around 3 minutes.
- Add the scallops and fry these for 2-3 minutes on either side or until they are cooked through. Then drizzle the honey over the scallops and chorizo, coating everything well. Divide the scallops and chorizo among the two scallop shells, scatter with remaining spring onion and serve.
