Ingredients:

  Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
16        medium        sea scallops
2         tablespoons   PERNOD
4         stems         rosemary 
1         tablespoon    olive oil
8         tablespoons   light sour cream
                        salt and pepper
 

Preparation:

Rinse the scallops thoroughly to rid them of sand. Strain the scallops and dry them with an absorbent paper towel. Rinse the rosemary stems and carefully thread approximately 4 scallops on each stem. Pour the olive oil into a non-stick frying pan and cook the brochettes for 2 minutes on each side. Add salt and pepper and set them aside in a dish. (Keep the dish hot.) Deglaze the pan with Pernod and flame it. Incorporate light sour cream and adjust the seasoning. Serve Pernod sauce with the sea scallops.
