Summer: Scallop Pasta



I made this about 100 times this summer. I know, a recipe I made that I actually cook over and over again. It's a big hit here.

- 4/5 U10 sea scallops
- zest of one lemon
- 1/4 cup of sherry wine
- 6 crimini mushrooms
- 2 slices of crazy good bacon
- 1 fresh roma tomato
- 1/2 cup cream
- crushed red pepper
- 2 cloves garlic
- 2 tbsp butter
- 2 tbsp evoo
- italian parsley
- basil

Cook the bacon and mushrooms first, take them out add scallops, lemon, butter, garlic, basil (if you feel like it) and sherry. cook for a few minutes. Add mushrooms and bacon back in. Turn down heat to low. Add cream and chopped fresh tomato. Stir until thick. Add parsley to finish. Add to penne pasta. Of course salt/pepper at every important step.

Summer: Tuna Steak and Scallop with some kind of Hollandaise



Crazy busy summer. Not sure how I made this, but it's always good.
