elle's Fancy Friday Seafood Feast

Today was seafood day and the menu included very large fresh water shrimp from Thailand and sea scallops so big we had to cut them in half to eat them.

Menu for four:
Large shrimp-12
Sea Scallops-12

I season them alike with salt, pepper, paprika, seafood seasoning and garlic powder to taste. If the seafood is very, very fresh I sometimes keep it simple and just use salt and pepper.

Heat some butter with olive oil and pan saute the scallops first, turning as needed on all sides especially if they are very thick. A medium to high heat will give them some nice color. Put finished scallops in a warming dish in the oven and using the same pan, saute the shrimp just until pink with a little curl.

Side Suggestions:
We had:
Frozen lima beans cooked with butter.
Frozen sweet corn cooked with butter.
