This was our Valentine dinner last night. I made this based on this recipe but instead of the combination of spices that make up the blackening seasoning it called for, I used Old Bay Blackened Seasoning. Much easier!
I sauteed half of a shallot and 8 ounces sliced mushrooms in a mixture of butter and olive oil. I added two Roma tomatoes, chopped and a little white wine. Then, the scallops were rolled in the blackening spices and sauteed in butter 3 to 4 minutes per side in another pan. I served this over pasta and grated some parmesan cheese over it. My Valentine said it was delicious and I agreed!
These look so good, I love scallops - hope you had a great Valentine's day!
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely Valentine's meal. Hope you two had a great night.

ReplyDeleteKaren- I am wondering do you know if you can blacken Mahi-Mahi the same way? Thanks. This looks great.
ReplyDeleteMmmm...I will be shopping for some meds for a very sick Matt later today. While I am at the store it couldn't hurt to add a scallop or two to the cart :) This looks like a very yummy, yet simple and quick meal!
ReplyDeleteOooh, this makes me hungry Karen... it's almost lunchtime here, and that would taste soo good on this chilly day.
