SAUTEED SCALLOPS & SHRIMP PASTA
I created this tempting seafood pasta for my wife. It's a terrific meal served with crusty sourdough. If you don't like spice, skip the red pepper flakes. -George Levinthal, Goleta, California

SAUTEED SCALLOPS
A very simple recipe for how delicious it is! Just crush the garlic with the side of a chef's knife blade instead of chopping it, and using whole sprigs of rosemary allows them to be easily removed before serving.

Steps:
- In a large skillet, heat butter over medium high heat.
- When butter begins to foam, add the garlic paste and shallot and saute for a minute or two, to soften a bit.
- Add the seafood of your choice: For the shrimp, saute for 2-3 minutes or until shrimp turn pink.
- For the scallops, saute 3-5 minutes, or until scallops turn opaque.
- Once the seafood is cooked through, remove to a plate and cover.
- Add the sherry to the melted butter and warm through for about a minute or two.
- Pour sauce over seafood, top with parsley, and serve.
Tips:
- Use the right type of scallops and shrimp. For scallops, use large sea scallops or diver scallops. Avoid bay scallops, as they are too small for sautéing. For shrimp, use large or medium shrimp. Avoid small shrimp, as they will overcook too quickly.
- Make sure the scallops and shrimp are properly cleaned. Remove the tough muscle from the side of the scallops and devein the shrimp. Rinse the seafood thoroughly and pat it dry with paper towels.
- Season the seafood with a simple spice blend. Salt and pepper are always a good choice, but you can also add garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, or chili powder. Toss the seafood with the spices until it is evenly coated.
- Use a hot skillet and a little bit of oil. A hot skillet will help to sear the seafood and prevent it from sticking. Add just enough oil to coat the bottom of the skillet.
- Don't overcrowd the skillet. If you overcrowd the skillet, the seafood will not cook evenly. Cook the seafood in batches if necessary.
- Cook the seafood until it is opaque and cooked through. Scallops should be cooked for about 2-3 minutes per side, while shrimp should be cooked for about 1-2 minutes per side. Overcooked seafood is tough and chewy, so be careful not to overcook it.
- Serve the seafood immediately. Sautéed scallops and shrimp are best served immediately, while they are still hot and juicy.
Conclusion:
Sautéed scallops and shrimp is a quick and easy seafood dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. With just a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a delicious and healthy meal that the whole family will enjoy. Serve the scallops and shrimp over rice, pasta, or a salad, and enjoy!
