Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Broth

    In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and chopped shallots, sautéing until fragrant and translucent, about 3-4 minutes.

  2. 2

    Add Beans and Tomatoes

    Stir in the diced plum tomatoes and cook for another 2 minutes. Then add the drained white beans, vegetable broth, chopped rosemary, and red pepper flakes. Bring to a simmer.

  3. 3

    Simmer the Broth

    Let the broth simmer for 10-15 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

  4. 4

    Cook the Scallops

    While the broth is simmering, season the diver scallops with salt and black pepper. In a separate skillet over medium-high heat, sear the scallops for about 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Ladle the spicy white bean and rosemary broth into bowls, top with seared scallops, and garnish with fresh parsley. Serve hot.
