White Wine Alfredo Over Scallops And Penne Recipe

White wine alfredo over scallops and penne

From kawa11desho 16 years ago

Delicious, light and creamy dish with seafood undertones. Quite easy to prepare, though very classic and elegant. Pairs well with citrus.

15-20 large sweet scallops ( about 1- 1 1/2 lbs) shopping list
1 full bottle of white wine (NOT cooking wine, it is too vinegary and overpowers the scallops) shopping list
1 c heavy (whipping) cream shopping list
1/2 c parmesan cheese, freshly grated shopping list
3 T garlic shopping list
1 T butter shopping list
2 lbs penne or Farafelle pasta shopping list
black pepper to taste shopping list

Boil water for pasta, prepare as directed on package.
Combine cream, butter and garlic in large sauté pan. Bring to simmer and then remove from heat.
In a separate pan, reduce the wine down by 2/3.
Drain and rinse pasta.
Add Parmesan to cream sauce, simmer until thick.
Add wine reduction to sauce. Reserve 1/3c.
VERY BRIEFLY sauté the scallops in the remaining wine reduction. (No more than a minute.)
Add remaining wine and scallops to Alfredo, simmer for 1-1/2 minutes to allow scallops to finish cooking
Serve.
