Pat the sea scallops dry with paper towels and season both sides with a pinch of sea salt and black pepper.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the scallops for
5–2 minutes per side until golden brown and just cooked through. Remove scallops from the pan and set aside, keeping them warm.
In a separate large saucepan, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the finely chopped onion and cook for 2–3 minutes until translucent. Add the minced garlic and cook for another 30 seconds.
Stir in the Arborio rice and cook for 1–2 minutes, stirring constantly, until the rice is lightly toasted and coated with oil.
Pour in the Asti Spumanti sparkling wine and stir until most of the liquid is absorbed by the rice.
Add the chicken broth, about 100 ml at a time, stirring frequently and allowing each addition to be absorbed before adding more. Continue this process for about 18–20 minutes, until the rice is creamy and al dente.
Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese, half of the chopped parsley, and season with the remaining sea salt and black pepper. Mix well and remove from heat.
To serve, spoon the risotto onto plates, top with the seared scallops, and drizzle with a little extra Asti Spumanti reduction if desired. Garnish with the remaining chopped parsley.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Sicilian Scallop Risotto with Asti-Spumanti Reduction.
