Fishwife Recipes
Seared Scallop Pasta with Browned Butter and Sage
Our partner site, The Fishwife, shares a five-star restaurant level recipe, with combination of classic flavours. You will need:
- Greenfish Scallops (about 16 - 20 Large)
- 5 Tbsp Butter
- 20g fresh Sage Leaves
- 1/2 cup Parmesan Cheese
- 3/4 pack of Linguini Pasta
- Salt & pepper
Preparation:
- Cook pasta as per package instructions. While the pasta is cooking, sear the scallops.
- Dry scallops off with a bit of paper towel.
- Once most of the moisture has been removed, season both sides with salt and pepper.
- In a pan melt the 1 tablespoon of the butter on a medium to high heat.
- When the butter is bubbling, place the scallops in the hot pan and sear for 1 to 1 and a half minutes per side depending on how big the scallops are. Do not allow the butter to burn.
- The scallops are done when they turn from translucent to white, and they should turn a lovely golden colour on the outside from the caramelization.
- Remove scallops from the pan and set aside.
- For the sauce, drop the heat to medium and add the remaining 4 tablespoons of butter, allowing it to bubble and melt and turn a golden colour, being careful not to let it burn.
- Add the sage leaves and fry for a minute or two.
- Place the pasta and seared scallops into the browned butter and sage mixture and toss together.
- Add the parmesan, salt and pepper and toss once more.
- Serve immediately.

South AfricaWell, having lived in super large scallop diving territory, and perhaps having eaten the best fresh scallops in the world - beards and all, I am still very comfortable to say this frozen variety remains as great as hoped. Reasonably priced, and can be dressed in many ways as the size is truly very good. Of course, I ducked doing the traditional preparation and went for something very different to finish off a super special seafood dish. I have not found better scallops in SA thus far. Well done!!!
South AfricaThis is the first time I have bought scallops and can highly recommend them. The service again from Green fish was spot on, the quality of the product superb. I followed the recommended recipe which was simple and worked. delicious.
South AfricaExcellent. Beatifully prepared and a delight
South AfricaBefore I purchased this product, I have never had had scallops in my life. Oh my word! The best way I can describe the taste is an "all-in-one-fish-potjie" on your tongue. The packaging is very professional and the scallops are very decent in terms of size. Would strongly recommend!
South AfricaSo far I am very pleased with the package of Scallops. I will only taste them, with chili jam when my son is back home next week. For the salmon fillet, I will have to cut into portion s if I will Not have it whole for a 6 persons diner I will let you know. Thanks
South AfricaThank you Greenfish! From start to finish a pleasure... online ordering, easy; delivery, VERY efficient; cooking simple and eating, absolutely YUM!! Can't wait to order more.
South AfricaI have been meaning to try scallops for years now… and these were delicious. Already prepped by Greenfish, all I had to do was thaw, seal in a hot pan and add some garlic, lemon and butter sauce. Thank you! I will defs order again. And the service on this order was beyond outstanding - fast and efficient.
South AfricaThe only place in Cape Town one can find scallops. And they are really delicious!!
South AfricaHands down the best Scallops I have ever had. as well as the best service. keep up the good work.
South AfricaFirst time customer, great service, awesome delivery time. The scallops were amazing!!! Hassle free in preparing and simply delicious! Already told many people about your website and I will be back soon. Thank you
South AfricaThese scallops are delicious, this will now become a regular order for me.
South AfricaIn my excitement about my lovely scallops, I posted them with my hake box. That’s how delicious these little things were. Well worth the money spent. I had these a couple of months ago at a restaurant and had been looking for them for a while. I then came across Greenfish and safe to say I will never go back. I will definitely be buying again. Simply spectacular!!!
South AfricaThese scallops are not only enormous, but they are flash frozen to insure the firmness, texture, and flavor of a fresh product, something that is guaranteed when you order from Greenfish. They are scrumptrulescent, to paraphrase Will Ferrell, extraordinary in so many of our favorite recipes, even as scallops rockefeller. We are never disappointed in this delicious harvest from the sea.
South AfricaQuality good. Service fantastic. Delivery and other instructions followed 100%
South AfricaThe scallops were delicious and tasty. Oh and the Salmon fillet and abalone is a must have. Soooo fresh and tasty! Will definitely purchase again. I'm quite impressed with the packaging and the delivery. 5 XXXXX Top Restaurant quality!
South AfricaExcellent! Brilliant service and packaging. Will definitely be ordering again soon.
South AfricaGreat size package, enough to serve as a meal or as part of a side dish. I cooked my side of scallops in a bit of browned butter and a dash of chilli oil and served on a bed of pasta with chilli and lemon paste... visit Greenfishes' recipe website: www.fishwife.co.za for many inspiring recipes ...delish!
South AfricaWonderfully fresh oysters and a taste of the ocean ! All our other products were of great quality and highly recommended!
South AfricaBest fresh yellowfin tuna in Cape Town!
South AfricaIt really is amazing that one can still find; service; integrity & truly fresh fish. The standard set by Green Fish is a Woolies standard +++ My daughter introduced us to Green Fish, by sending a box of different fresh fish and we were hooked, 'hook line and sinker' (sorry that there were no emojis), but I would have used the clapping hands repeatedly Thanks Green Fish!!!
