Sweetbreads with Grilled Scallops and Parmesan Tuiles
Flavors of France
Total time: 15 to 30 minutes
Preparation time: 15 minutes
Cooking time: 10 minutes
Difficulty: Easy
Ingredients
Ingredients for 4 servings
- 400 g (14 oz.) Sweetbreads
- 12 Scallops, coral removed
- 40 g (3 tbsp.) butter
- 100 ml (6 tbsp.) cream
- A few strands of saffron
- 12 thin slices of Parmesan
- Juice of 1 lemon
- Salt and pepper
Method
  1. Poach the sweetbreads for a few minutes in hot water. Immediately run them under cold water to cool them. 
  2. Slice into escalopes and set aside.
  3. Wash the scallops in cold water and drain on paper towels.
  4. Heat a non-stick skillet over high heat. Place the slices of Parmesan into the hot pan and cook on both sides for about 2 minutes. Remove the slices with a spatula and place them over a rolling pin or bottle so that they don’t stick and so that they cool into an attractive curved shape. 
  5. Make the sauce by heating the cream gently with the saffron, salt and pepper. Turn off the heat and leave to infuse. 
  6. In a large lightly buttered pan, sauté the sweetbreads for 40 seconds on each side. Set aside and repeat with the scallops, cooking 1 minutes on each side and drizzling with lemon juice. 
  7. Place a slice of sautéed sweetbread and a few scallops on each plate.   
  8. Spoon some of the saffron sauce over top and garnish with a Parmesan tuile.      
  9. Serve immediately.
