Ingredients:
3 cups broccoli florets
1 Tbsp. minced garlic
1 cup diced yellow onions
½ lb. large sea scallops
1½ cups water
Fresh lemon wedges, for garnish
Salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions:
1. Combine the broccoli florets, minced garlic, diced onions, and water together in a large skillet over medium heat. Let the ingredients cook in the skillet for at least 15 minutes, tossing every few minutes.
2. When the broccoli is tender, transfer the ingredients into a blender and pulse on high until you have a pudding like purée.
3. In the meantime, grease the same skillet with a bit of olive oil and place the scallops in a single layer. Sear them over medium heat for 3 minutes on each side, until they are cooked throughout.
4. Divide the broccoli mash between two plates and top with the seared scallops.
5. Squeeze a bit of fresh lemon juice over the scallops and add salt and pepper, to taste
