Balsamic Glazed Sea Scallops
Super simple, extremely delcious, relatively healthy, and adaptable for so many other applications (think trifle, strawberry short cake, glazed lemon cake, with fruit compote, layered cake etc.).
It has a lovely, bright lemon aroma and moist crumb exclusively owed to the addition of fused lemon agrumato olive oil, a gentle tang from yogurt, and a pleasing delicate crunch and extra complexity from a little cornmeal.
