Scallops with Snow Peas & Orange


Description

Something maybe different.

Ingredients

1 cup couscous
2 tsp plus 1 tablespoon olive oil
16 sea scallops (about 1 1/2 pounds)
1 orange
3/4 pound snow peas, halved lengthwise
salt and black pepper

Directions

Cook the couscous according to the package directions.

Meanwhile, heat 2 teaspoons of the oil in a large non stick skillet over medium-high heat.

Pat the scallops dry and season with ¼ teaspoon each salt and pepper. Cook until opaque throughout and golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate and cover.

Using a vegetable peeler, remove 4 strips of zest from the orange. Thinly slice them.

Wipe out the skillet. Heat the remaining tablespoon of oil over medium-high heat. Add the snow peas, orange zest, and ¼ teaspoon each salt and pepper.

Cook, tossing, until the snow peas are just tender, about 2 minutes. Serve with the scallops and couscous.
