Dinner at Home


Sea Scallops with Mustard Greens
The greens were a bit salty, but the scallops were perfectly cooked. Next time I'll use water instead of broth to cook the greens and cut down on the salt.

-6 sea scallops, patted dry
-salt and pepper to taste
-1 lb of mustard greens, washed and chopped
-1/2 onion, thinly sliced
-6 cloves garlic, minced
-1/8 cup grated parmasean
-a couple squeezes of lemon
-1/2 cup of water

Sautee the onions and garlic in a bit of olive oil. Add the greens and the water and simmer until liquid has evaporated. Add the cheese, lemon juice and salt and pepper to taste.

In another pan, heat a tablespoon of butter and a tablespoon of olive oil on medium high. Season the scallops on both sides with salt and pepper. Sear the scallops for 2 minutes on each side (until golden).

Serve on a bed of the greens. Serves 2.
