Scallops Poached in Achiote Sauce Preparation
* Note: See the “Pickled Red Onions” recipe which is included in this collection. Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over moderate heat. Saute the onions with the salt until caramelized, about 10 minutes. Add the garlic and achiote paste and cook 5 minutes, stirring frequently with a wooden spoon to avoid scorching. Add the tomato paste and pour in the fish stock or clam juice and boil 5 minutes longer. Stir in the pepper and vinegar and remove from the heat. Transfer the sauce to a blender and puree. Pass through a strainer. The sauce keeps up to 4 days. To finish, pour the sauce into a large skillet. Bring to a boil over high heat. Stir in the scallops or shrimp, reduce the heat to medium and cook 3 to 5 minutes. Serve over a bed of white rice and garnish with the Pickled Red Onions or capers. This recipe yields 4 to 6 servings.
