Categories     Seafood     Shellfish     Scallops

Time 30m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 (16 ounce) package angel hair pasta
¼ cup butter
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 pounds sea scallops, rinsed and patted dry
3 tablespoons chopped fresh basil
2 tablespoons chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
½ cup heavy cream
1 tablespoon grated Parmesan cheese to taste

Steps:

  • Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil over high heat. Once the water is boiling, stir in the angel hair pasta, and return to a boil. Cook the pasta uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the pasta has cooked through, but is still firm to the bite, 4 to 5 minutes. Drain well in a colander set in the sink.
  • Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat. Stir in the garlic and cook just until fragrant and softened, about 1 minute. Slice any scallops over 3/4-inch thick in half so they'll cook evenly; stir scallops, basil, and parsley into the skillet. Cook and gently stir just until scallops feel slightly firm when pressed with a finger, 2 to 3 minutes. Scallops will become tough and chewy if overcooked. Stir in lemon juice, and season with salt and black pepper. Pour in cream if you like a thicker sauce. Bring the mixture just to a bare simmer.
  • Serve over hot angel hair pasta; sprinkle to taste with Parmesan cheese.

GARLIC SCALLOPS WITH ANGEL HAIR PASTA

Provided by Katanashrp

Categories     Low Cholesterol

Time 25m

Yield 4 bowls, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

20 large scallops, muscle removed
8 ounces angel hair pasta
1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
2 garlic cloves
1/4 cup white wine
1 tablespoon lemon juice
4 ounces baby arugula

Steps:

  • Wash the scallops and pat dry well with a paper towel.
  • Cook the pasta in salted water, drain and toss with 1 tbsp of oil to keep it from sticking.
  • Meanwhile, heat 1 tbsp oil in frying pan, add the garlic and cook for a few seconds. Add wine, and lemon juice and remove from the heat.
  • Season the scallops with salt and pepper and grill for about a minute on each side, or until just cooked.
  • Gently reheat the garlic mixture, add the rocket and stir over medium heat for 1-2 minutes, or until wilted.
  • Toss through the pasta with the remaining oil, and scallops.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh, high-quality scallops. Look for scallops that are plump and have a slightly sweet smell. Avoid scallops that are slimy or have a strong odor.
  • Sear the scallops in a hot pan. This will create a nice crust on the outside while keeping the inside tender and juicy.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan. If you add too many scallops to the pan at once, they will not cook evenly.
  • Cook the scallops for 2-3 minutes per side, or until they are cooked through. You can check the doneness of the scallops by cutting into one. The scallops should be opaque and white in the center.
  • Serve the scallops immediately. Scallops are best served hot, so make sure to prepare the rest of the dish while the scallops are cooking.

Conclusion:

Scallop sauté with angel hair is a delicious and elegant dish that is perfect for a special occasion. The scallops are seared until golden brown and then served over a bed of angel hair pasta. The dish is finished with a light and flavorful sauce made with white wine, butter, and lemon juice. This dish is sure to impress your guests and is a great way to enjoy fresh scallops.
