These elegant pistachio-crusted scallops offer a sophisticated blend of textures and fresh flavours, making them an ideal choice for a light starter or a special main course. The buttery, toasted pistachios provide a satisfying crunch that perfectly complements the delicate, sweet flesh of the pan-seared seafood. Infused with a trio of fresh thyme, tarragon, and chives, this dish delivers a vibrant herbal finish without the need for heavy sauces.
As a diabetes-friendly recipe, this dish is naturally low in carbohydrates and rich in healthy fats and lean protein. The use of grapeseed oil allows for a high-heat sear, ensuring a professional, golden-brown crust every time. Serve these scallops alongside a crisp green salad or some steamed seasonal greens for a nutritious, restaurant-quality meal at home.
