Ingredients:
- Butter: 4 tablespoons
- Fresh Mushrooms: 1 pound, sliced
- Onion: 8 ounces, finely chopped
- Garlic Cloves: 2, minced
- Dry White Wine: ½ cup
- Half-and-Half: ½ cup
- Milk: ½ cup
- Dijon Mustard: 1 tablespoon
- Fresh Lemon Juice: 1 tablespoon
- Cooked Brown Rice: 1 cup
- Long-Grain White Rice: 1 cup, cooked
- Chives: 1 tablespoon, chopped
- Parsley: 1 tablespoon, chopped
- Salt and Pepper: To taste
Instructions:
-
Sauté the Scallops: Begin by heating 2 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over high heat. Once the butter is melted and bubbling, add the scallops. Sauté them for about 1 minute on each side, just until they develop a light golden brown color but are not fully cooked through. Be careful not to overcook them, as this will make them tough. Once done, transfer the scallops to a greased glass baking dish.
-
-
Prepare the Mushroom Mixture: In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium and add the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter. Allow it to melt before adding the sliced mushrooms, chopped onion, and minced garlic. Sauté the mixture for about 3 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender and fragrant.
-
Deglaze with Wine: Pour in the dry white wine and stir continuously. Allow the wine to reduce by half, which should take about 2 minutes. Be sure to keep stirring to prevent the mixture from burning.
-
Make the Creamy Sauce: Stir in the half-and-half, milk, Dijon mustard, and fresh lemon juice. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Continue to cook the mixture until it is well combined and heated through.
-
Combine and Bake: Pour the creamy mushroom mixture over the scallops in the baking dish. Gently stir in the cooked brown rice and white rice until everything is well mixed.
-
Bake the Dish: Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and place it in a preheated oven set to 350°F (175°C). Bake for about 30 minutes, or until the dish is bubbly and the flavors are melded together.
-
Garnish and Serve: Once baked, remove the dish from the oven and let it cool slightly. Garnish with freshly chopped chives and parsley before serving. Enjoy this comforting and elegant dish straight from the oven!
