Linguine With Scallops And Pepper Recipe
A nice way to serve scallops. And a nice way to stretch a pound of scallops to feed 4 in this economy.

Ingredients
  • Gremolata:
  • 3 cloves garlic, crushed
  • 1/2 bunch flat leaf parsley, finely chopped
  • 1 tablespoons lemon rind, finely grated
  • The Main Event:
  • 1 pound linguine, cooked, drained and kept warm
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 pound scallops (I've use both bay and sea scallops although I cut sea scallops in half)
  • 4 ounces lean cooked ham, cut into thin strips (I've left this out and it's still good)
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons fresh basil, chopped or 1 teaspoon dried basil
  • Fresh ground black pepper
  • 1 cup chicken stock or broth
  • 1 red bell pepper, julienned
  • 2 leeks, well cleaned and cut into strips

Directions
  1. For the gremolata: In bowl, combine garlic, parsley and lemon rind. Mix well and set aside.
  2. In large skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Add scallops and ham and saute 3 minutes or until scallops are opaque and ham begins to brown.
  3. Remove skillet from heat. Stir in lemon juice, basil and black pepper. Set aside.
  4. In saucepan, bring chicken broth or stock to a boil and simmer until reduced by half. Add red pepper and leek. Simmer 3 minutes.
  5. Add pasta and scallop mixture to broth. Toss to combine.
  6. Spoon onto serving platter and sprinkle with gremolata.
