Royal sea scallops are an exquisite dish of French cuisine that embodies elegance and refined flavors. The scallops, with their tender and sweet flesh, are seared to a golden crust, revealing their juiciness. Accompanied by a vegetable sauce featuring juicy sweet peppers and tender onions enriched with butter and the zest of ketchup, the dish gains depth of flavor. A garnish of airy rice serves as the perfect backdrop, complementing the tenderness of the seafood. This dish is not just a gastronomic pleasure but also an aesthetic delight worthy of a royal reception.
