My husband and I like to eat seafood at least once a week. Oranges and lemon juice give scallops a refreshing burst of flavor. Ingredients:
1 medium green or sweet red pepper, julienned |
4 green onions, chopped |
1 garlic clove, minced |
2 tablespoons olive oil |
1 pound sea scallops |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes |
2 tablespoons lime juice |
1/2 teaspoon grated lime peel |
4 medium navel oranges, peeled and sectioned |
2 teaspoons minced fresh cilantro |
hot cooked rice or pasta |
Directions:
1. In a large skillet, saute the pepper, onions and garlic in oil for 1 minute. Add scallops, salt and pepper flakes; cook for 4 minutes. Add lime juice and peel; cook for 1 minute. Reduce heat. Add orange sections and cilantro; cook 2 minutes longer or until scallops are opaque. Serve with rice or pasta. Yield: 4 servings.
