This elegant dish of pan-seared scallops with champagne grapes and almonds offers a sophisticated balance of sweet and savoury flavours. The succulent, golden-crusted seafood is perfectly complemented by the gently warmed grapes, which provide a burst of natural sweetness against the acidic brightness of fresh lemon juice. This dairy-free recipe relies on high-quality ingredients to create a restaurant-style finish that is surprisingly simple to achieve at home.
Ideal as a light main course or an impressive dinner party starter, the addition of toasted sliced almonds provides a delightful crunch that contrasts with the tender scallops. Serve this refined seafood dish alongside some wilted spinach or crushed new potatoes for a healthy yet indulgent meal. The combination of textures and the hint of nuttiness from the browned butter make this a truly memorable plate for any occasion.
