Description

This refined dish of scallops with saffron on a bed of chicory is perfect for a special occasion or an elegant dinner. The sweetness of the scallops goes perfectly with the slight bitterness of the chicory and the delicate scent of saffron. It is a dish that I often prepare for the holiday season, because it is both simple to make and impressive. The touch of fresh cream and lemon brings a smoothness and freshness that perfectly balance the flavors. A real treat for the taste buds!
