Scallops with White Wine Sauce

Step 1
Combine white wine, vinegar, and shallots in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Cook until about 1 tablespoon liquid remains in the pan. Stir in heavy cream; continue boiling until reduced by half. Stir in butter, 1 tablespoon at a time, until melted. Keep sauce warm.

Step 2
Preheat the oven on broiler setting.

Step 3
Brush scallops with olive oil; sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place under the preheated broiler until scallops are opaque, with a bit of brown around the edges, about 2 minutes per side.

Step 4
Place a spoonful of sauce on each plate and top with 4 scallops.
