Ingredients

0.25 cup white wine
0.25 cup white wine vinegar
1 tablespoon shallots
0.5 cup heavy cream
0.75 cup butter
24 sea scallops
1 tablespoon olive oil
salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

In a medium saucepan, combine white wine, vinegar, and shallots over medium-high heat. Cook until only about 1 tablespoon of liquid remains. Stir in heavy cream and continue boiling until the mixture has reduced by half. Gradually stir in butter, 1 tablespoon at a time, until fully melted and incorporated. Keep the sauce warm until serving.
Preheat your oven's broiler to high heat.
Lightly brush the scallops with olive oil, then season generously with salt and pepper. Place the scallops under the preheated broiler and cook until they turn opaque, with a touch of golden brown around the edges, approximately 2 minutes per side.
Spoon a generous amount of the white wine sauce onto each plate, then arrange 4 perfectly broiled scallops on top.
