My son Ryan and his wife Gina love to cook together. This is one of their all time classic dishes they like to make together.
INGREDIENTS:
- 8 large sea scallops
- Fusilli pasta noodles
- 1 lemon
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- Fresh chopped parsley (for topping)
- Fresh grated parmesan (for topping)
- Sea salt
- Ground black pepper
- Red pepper
- Garlic (fresh or powder)
Roasted Vegetable Ingredients:
- 2 red peppers, sliced
- 3 zucchinis
- 3 yellow squashes
- 2 packs button mushrooms, sliced
DIRECTIONS:
Roasted Vegetables: Cut the peppers into approximately 1” slivers and dice the zucchinis and squash into 1” to ½” thick quarters. Combine these in a bowl with the mushrooms, sea salt, ground black pepper, red pepper powder, garlic, olive oil, and sea salt. Toss together. Place vegetables on a foil-covered baking sheet and bake at 425°F until they are tender, turning every 15 minutes.
Scallops: Season the 8 large scallops on both sides with garlic powder, salt, and black pepper, while heating 1 tablespoon of butter in a skillet. Add scallops to skillet and sauté until brown on both sides (about 5 minutes each). Add a squeeze of lemon juice to pan.
