I recalling not loving Cauliflower as a kid. I remember that it stunk! That funk came from phytonutrients, which release odorous sulfur compounds when heated Download sims 3 extension for free.

Prosciutto-Wrapped Scallops and Shrimp

Written By: Chris - Sep• 18•14

I was trying to think of something different to prepare on a recent girls night gathering. Bill had been hungry for scallops and I always like shrimp served along with them download video mac. I took a look around the fridge, freezer and pantry to see what ingredients that I had on hand; and recalled watching Giada prepare Prosciutto wrapped scallops lidl plus app. I went on line and worked with her recipe!

1/4 Cup Sun-dried Tomatoes
2-3 Tablespoons Fresh Basil leaves
2 Tablespoons Kalamata Olives, (about 12 olives pitted where to download books. She used black olives)
1/4 Cup Extra Virgin Olive Oil
6 Scallops (it’s all I had, she used 12, so I also made shrimp!)
Salt & Pepper, to taste
6 thinly sliced Prosciutto
2 Cups Fresh Greens, (Arugula)
1 – 2 Tablespoons Balsamic Vinegar

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F herunterladen.

Clean and pat dry scallops and peel the shells off the shrimp but leave the little tail on the end Download 3sat broadcasts. Clean thoroughly and season both sides of the fish with salt and pepper.

Place wrapped scallops in a buttered baking dish, seam side down sparkasse online banking app.

Meanwhile, allow the shrimp to marinate for 20 minutes or so in the remaining mixture.

In a medium bowl, toss the arugula with the balsamic vinegar. Season the arugula with salt and pepper.

Place the arugula on a serving platter or divide among individual dishes. Top with the scallops and serve immediately.
