Number of servings
4
  • 50grams butter
  • 16 shelled and cleaned scallops, halved
  • 1 rindless streaky bacon rasher, roughly snipped
  • 3 leeks, trimmed, cleaned and sliced
  • 3/4 cup crème fraîche
  • 1 lemon, finely grated rind
  • 1 pinch pepper
  • 280grams quick-cook long-grain rice (to serve)

Method

Step 1 of 3

Melt half the butter in a large, heavy-based frying pan and cook the scallops and bacon over a high heat, stirring frequently, for 2 minutes until just golden and cooked through. Remove with a slotted spoon and keep warm.

Step 2 of 3

Add the remaining butter to the pan and cook the leeks over a medium heat, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes until softened and lightly browned in places. Add the crème fraîche and lemon rind and season generously with pepper.

Step 3 of 3

Return the scallops to the pan and toss into the creamy leeks. Serve immediately with quick-cook rice.
