Golden Scallops
Despite being a meal with three components, this dinner took little time to make. It is technically quite simple yet tastes somewhat complex.
Ingredients for Scallops:
- 1/2 TB garlic powder
- 1/2 TB onion powder
- 1 tsp turmeric
- 1 tsp paprika
- pinch of sea salt
- 1/2 cup white wine
Mix the marinade in a bowl. Add the scallops and coat them evenly, and let them sit for 10 minutes or so. Then squeeze some lemon juice on top, stir them a little, and pour them with the marinade into a hot pan. Pan-fry on medium high for just a few minutes on each side. Do not over-cook them or they’ll end up like rubber.
I served these with my Mango Berry Chutney and some Saffron Rice, which was just some jasmine rice cooked with saffron, to which I added some peas at the end.
Saffron Rice:
- 1 cup Jasmine rice
- pinch of saffron
- frozen peas
