"Cooking is at once one of the simplest and most gratifying of the arts,
but to cook well one must love and respect food."

Chicken and Scallops au Gratin
Joey D’s, Woodland Hills, CA
Gourmet Archives

1/2 pound boneless, skinless chicken breast, cut into ¾-inch cubes
1/2 pound sea scallops, rinsed, patted dry
1/4 cup flour
3 tablespoons clarified butter
2 shallots, minced
6 mushrooms, sliced thin
1/2 cup dry white wine
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/2 teaspoon minced fresh tarragon leaves
1/4 cup freshly grated Gruyère cheese

 Season chicken and scallops with salt and pepper and dredge them in flour, shaking off the excess.
In a large skillet heat clarified butter over high heat until hot but not smoking. In it sauté the chicken and scallops, stirring, for 2 minutes.  Add shallots and mushrooms and cook the mixture, stirring, for 1 minute, or until the sauce coats a spoon. Add wine and reduce it to about 2 tablespoons. Add cream and tarragon and cook the mixture, stirring, for 1 minute, or until it coats a spoon, and add salt and pepper to taste.
Divide the mixture between two 7-inch gratin dishes, sprinkle Gruyère over the tops and bake dishes in a preheated 375° F. oven for 4 to 5 minutes, or until the sauce is bubbly. Serves 2.
