PAPPARDELLE WITH SCALLOPS
Seared fresh scallops pair beautifully with garlicky pasta. If you like, you can substitute 12 ounces of egg fettuccine for the pappardelle. Slicing the raw scallops in half horizontally will give you more pieces and more delicious seared crust.

PAPPARDELLE WITH SCALLOPS - GUY FIERI
Saw this on Guy Fieri's show and it looked fantastic. It got great reviews on the food network site so I thought I'd post it here so I can try it later. Pappardelle pasta can be found in the dairy section of most major grocery stores, if unable to fined, any wide noodle pasta will work. Some reviews mentioned that olive oil was used instead of truffle oil. Submitted to www.recipezaar.com on Feb. 16, 2010.

- Use fresh, high-quality ingredients: The better the ingredients, the better the dish will be. Look for plump, firm scallops, fresh pasta, and fragrant herbs.

- Roast the garlic until it is caramelized: Roasting the garlic brings out its sweetness and adds a delicious flavor to the dish.
- Use a good quality olive oil: Olive oil is a key ingredient in this dish, so it's important to use a good quality oil that has a fruity flavor.
- Garnish the dish with fresh herbs: Fresh herbs, such as marjoram, parsley, or basil, add a pop of color and flavor to the dish.
