A seafood dish that I like a lot, originally generated by The McIlhenny Family (the folks who make Tabasco Sauce), pre-tweaking. If you are touchy about spicy-hot food, you might want to pass this one by - on the other hand, this is a super way to prepare fresh scallops if you enjoy spicy seafood as much as I do.
Ingredients:
1/4 cup olive oil
8 fresh garlic cloves, chopped
1 lb scallops (bay or sea)
3/4 cup red chile, julienned
3/4 cup green chili, julienned
1 cup sweet onion, roughly chopped
1/2 teaspoon tabasco sauce
1/4 teaspoon seasoning salt
2 tablespoons capers, drained
Directions:
1. Heat the oil in a large skillet and add the garlic. Sautee for about one minute (garlic should turn light brown).
2. Add all remaining ingredients EXCEPT for the capers. Cook, stirring constantly, for about 5 minutes until the scallops are done (white) and the vegetables tender but not mushy.
3. Stir in the capers, remove from the heat immediately and, serve.
