Scallop flambéed with Cognac

I love seafood but much prefer scallops. In France, we usually find fresh scallops in November and December. But you can find frozen foods all year round. We often eat scallops to celebrate a special occasion such as Christmas or New Years.

They are also delicious served with a leek fondue and many French chefs regularly associate them with mushrooms for their famous Terre et Mer menus.

If you like this recipe, you might be interested in visiting the Fish and Seafood category.

Serve this delicious recipe with rice or mashed potatoes.
