  3. Heat 3 tbs olive oil in large pot, over medium low heat, until very hot.
  4. Carefully sautee, until floured pieces brown to just golden (about two to three minutes per side- turning with tongs. It will COOK more, later. Gently remove seafood from pan and set aside, uncovered, to a warm oven.
  5. Reheat this pan to high and lightly brown onions, garlic cloves, pine nuts, - adding a TSP more oil if needed- but DO NOT BURN your garlic. Remove when nicely browned.
