Mccormick Lemon Herb Seafood Sauce Recipes

LEMON HERB SAUCE FOR SCALLOPS

Steps:

• Sear the scallops, following the instructions for Pan Seared Scallops.
• Remove the scallops from the skillet to a plate and reduce the heat to medium. Add the butter, lemon juice, minced garlic and chopped herbs. Scrape the bottom of the pan with a spatula to release flavor from any browned bits stuck to the pan. Cook 1 minute until fragrant.
• Reduce the heat to low. Add the scallops and cover them with sauce. Then remove from the heat and serve immediately.

HERB AND LEMON SAUCE FOR SHRIMP AND PASTA

Steps:

• Cook pasta according to package directions only until just al dente; drain; set aside.
• Melt the butter in a large, heavy skillet (I love making this in my wok!). Add lemon zest, garlic, red pepper flakes, basil and oregano; saute over medium heat 2 minutes.
• Add shrimp and saute until opaque, about 4 minutes. Note that shrimp should almost be fully cooked at this stage, but not completely, so don't overcook this step or shrimp will be tough.
• Add parsley, green onions, salt and pepper, and cook 1 minute longer.
• Stir in lemon juice and cook another minute, then add the cooked pasta and parmesan cheese; toss well and serve immediately.
• Serve with additional parmesan cheese, if desired.
