Yield 5

Number Of Ingredients 14

16 ounces dry fettuccine pasta
¼ cup pesto
2 tablespoons olive oil
3 tablespoons olive oil
½ onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 green bell pepper, thinly sliced
½ cup fresh sliced mushrooms
2 tablespoons dry white wine
2 tablespoons lemon juice
salt to taste
ground black pepper to taste
1 pound scallops
2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • In a large pot with boiling salted water cook fettuccini pasta until al dente. Drain. Stir in pesto sauce and 2 tablespoons of olive oil.
  • Meanwhile, in a large skillet, saute onion and garlic in 3 tablespoons olive oil until soft. Add green bell pepper, mushrooms and cook until soft, about 3 minutes. Stir in dry white wine, lemon juice, salt and pepper to taste, and bring to a boil. Add scallops and toss for 2 minutes. Take care not to overcook the scallops, as they will toughen when exposed to prolonged heat.

CREAMY BAY SCALLOP SPAGHETTI



Creamy Bay Scallop Spaghetti image

This scallop and spaghetti dinner with a creamy sauce is fast and easy. I cook the scallops a bit longer than many chefs, but that's gives the dish more flavor and they're still tender and moist. I think you'll agree, the sherry sauce benefits significantly from the longer cook time.

Provided by Chef John

Categories     Seafood     Shellfish     Scallops

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 13

8 ounces uncooked thick spaghetti
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 pound bay scallops
2 tablespoons butter
3 cloves garlic, minced
2 teaspoons grated lemon zest
1 pinch red pepper flakes
⅓ cup dry sherry
1 cup heavy cream
salt and pepper to taste
1 lemon, juiced
2 tablespoons chopped Italian parsley, divided
Freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese, for serving

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook spaghetti in the boiling water, stirring occasionally until tender yet firm to the bite, about 10 minutes or 1 minute less than directed on the package.
  • Heat oil in a large skillet over high heat. When oil just starts to smoke, add scallops and move them into a single layer. Let sear on high for 60 seconds. Toss to turn. Add butter and stir scallops until butter melts. Stir in garlic. Add lemon zest and red pepper flakes. Stir in sherry and cook and stir until alcohol cooks off, about 1 minute. Pour in cream. When mixture begins to simmer, reduce heat to medium-low. Add salt, pepper, and lemon juice.
  • Drain pasta. Transfer to skillet with scallops; bring to a simmer. Add half the parsley. Cook until pasta is heated through and tender, about 1 minute. Remove from heat. Grate generously with grated cheese. Add the rest of the parsley. Serve in warm bowls.
