Pan-seared Scallops
Pan-seared Scallops with Apple and Celery Root Puree, Apple Salad and Apple Chutney
Lizzie: "We don't have beautiful apple orchards in Alaska like the rest of the west does, but we do have crabapples there. My dish has to be savory, so I am doing some scallops, green apple and celery root puree, apple chutney, and the crabapple salad. The scallops are not the star of this dish, and it would be easy for that to become the focus. I definitely feel like I'm pushing myself using a few new ingredients, but I'm excited to see how it turns out."
Lizzie (talking to judges during preparation): "I am doing pan seared scallops with a green apple and celery root puree, honey crisp chutney, and a crab apple salad."
Gordon Ramsay: "So the apple is present three different ways?"
Lizzie: "Yes. I want to make sure the apples are the star and not my scallops."

Recipes inspired by MasterChef ™
MasterChef ™ is an amateur American cooking reality television series derived from the British series of the same name. It features amateur and home cooks competing to win the title of 'MasterChef ™'.
Viewers typically see the final rounds of the selection process, and then watch 20 finalists cook off against each other over 15 - 20 episodes which include mystery box challenges, pressure tests, team events and elimination games. There is a final round, usually with the last three cooks creating an inspired three course meal.
At the time of writing, the judges are Gordon Ramsay, Joe Bastianich, and Aarón Sánchez.
