Method

Preparing the Corn Coulis

  1. 1

    Cook the Corn

    In a saucepan, combine the fresh corn kernels and vegetable broth. Bring to a boil and then simmer for about 10 minutes until the corn is tender.

  2. 2

    Blend the Coulis

    Transfer the corn mixture to a blender, add the heavy cream, salt, and black pepper. Blend until smooth. Adjust seasoning if necessary, and keep warm.

Marinating the Chanterelles

  1. 3

    Prepare the Marinade

    In a bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, thyme, salt, and black pepper.

  2. 4

    Marinate the Chanterelles

    Add chanterelle mushrooms to the marinade and let it sit for at least 30 minutes to absorb the flavors.

Cooking the Scallops

  1. 5

    Sear the Scallops

    In a large skillet, heat the butter and olive oil over medium-high heat. Season the scallops with salt and black pepper. Once the skillet is hot, add the scallops and sear for about 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through.

  2. 6

    Assemble the Dish

    On a plate, create a base with the corn coulis, arrange the seared scallops on top, and garnish with the marinated chanterelles.
