Scallops on Asparagus Spears With Wine Reduction image

This is a perfect light dish for spring or summer. I used bay scallops and reduced the cooking time to 2 minutes per side. An easy way to season the scallops is to put them in a plastic bag along with the coating mixture, and just shake the bag a few times. If you need the Old Bay, DiB's recipe #15562 is good. This recipe's source is McCormick.

Number Of Ingredients 9

24 asparagus spears, trimmed
2 tablespoons flour
1/2 teaspoon Old Bay Seasoning
1/2 teaspoon paprika
3 tablespoons butter, divided
1 lb sea scallops, rinsed and patted dry
1/2 cup dry white wine
